PLUS THREE FROM PATRICK
My top three golfers in Minnesota history:
1. Patty Berg: She won the first U.S. Women's Open in 1946, was a founder of the LPGA and won 15 professional majors.
2. Tom Lehman: He was the PGA Tour's Player of the Year in 1996. Yes, a Minnesota boy was that.
3. Bev Gammon Vanstrum: When Bev died in 2009, Warren Rebholz, a man who knows, said: "She was the Tiger Woods of statewide women's golf.''
