Matchless Synopsis

From the moment women began hosting championships of their own in 1893, one of golf's burning questions became whether any woman would ever approach the mythical ideal of playing perfect golf. It took three decades of striving - at a time when Suffragettes were stubbornly fighting for women's rights - before Joyce Wethered and Glenna Collett delivered an unequivocal answer to that question. From their first meeting at Troon in 1925, through a decade highlighted by their breathtaking match at St Andrews, the Englishwoman and the American brought out in one another golf so sublime that rare was the player, man or woman, who could perform as brilliantly.

'Matchless' tells the story of these two incomparable golfers - women who personified the ambitions of their age.
