The response to the announcement of the Women in Golf Awards, taking place on December 7th at the Bramshaw and Bell Inn, has been resounding. Practically every area of the golf industry is represented on the guest list and nominations for the Unsung Hero Award have come in from every part of the United Kingdom demonstrating the positive impact that women are having across the sport.
