What happened at the 1989 Nabisco Dinah Shore
At the par-4 12th on Sunday, Inkster pushed a nine-iron into the rough, chipped on and holed a 20-foot par putt just after JoAnne Carner had cut her lead to three.
Inkster had switched to a Ping putter two weeks earlier, benching the Arnold Palmer model she had used for 11 years.
