The inspirating achievements of women working in the golf industry were showcased at a glittering ceremony at Foxhills.
The R&A’s Jackie Davidson was among those honoured at the Women in Golf Awards, which have been held since 2022 and celebrate the significant contribution made by women past and present.
Aimi Bullock became the first double winner of an award, recognised in both the Rising Star and Unsung Hero categories for her work with golf and disability, while Davidson, pictured below, was recognised for the Women in Golf Charter and Women in Golf Leadership Development Programme.
Awards founder Nicole Wheatley said: “Year on year, we uncover stories about women who are shaping the future of the industry. The competition this year was incredibly fierce; any one of the finalists would have been a worthy winner.
“And while a celebration of today’s brightest stars is vital to the progression of women in the industry, it’s equally important that we recognise the women who came before us.
“They have paved the way for women to access careers in every part of the sport, which is why the special recognition awards are so significant.”
