Jamaican national, Diane Lang was declared winner of the 2006 United States Golf Association (USGA) Senior Women’s Amateur title on October 12, at the Sea Island Golf Club, St. Simons Island in Georgia.
This is her second consecutive success, making it the seventh time in the history of the 106 year-old tournament that a golfer has achieved a consecutive win.
