Marlene Stewart Streit, 78, is one of only two players over the age of 70 playing at the United States Golf Association's Senior Women's Amateur Championship, which begins Saturday at Hershey Country Club in Hershey, PA.
Stewart Streit is also the only golfer to have won the Canadian, United States, British and Australian amateur championships.
Other Canadians teeing-it-up at the 2012 U.S. Women's Senior Championship include newly crowned Royale Cup Canadian Women's Senior champion Terrill Samuel, Mary Ann Hayward and Helene Chartrand.
