Colleen Walker had a gentle way of “cleaning the clocks” of her opponents. She would smile, hit all of her shots straight down the middle of the fairways and warmly accept trophies and prize money.
Nine-time LPGA Tour winner Colleen Walker passed away on Tuesday night at her home in Valrico, Fla. following a second battle with cancer. She was 56 years old.
