From there, Broome began a successful career in golf operations, including 30 years as a senior global executive with Acushnet Company, where he served in many different roles, most recently as the senior vice president of Titleist Brand Management and Acushnet Industry Relations, a portfolio that included overseeing partnerships with the PGA TOUR and Governing Bodies. In addition, Broome led Acushnet’s operations in Canada and Latin America, ensuring continued growth for the game at home and around the world.

Following his distinguished career, Broome was invited to join the Board of Directors of Golf Canada in 2024 as a director at large. He currently Co-Chairs the Golf Industry Advisory Council and is a member of the Compensation Committee.

“This is a lot to process. I’m literally speechless. In a life dedicated to the game and having grown up in awe of the hall of fame members, I could not imagine being part of this illustrious community. Being a part of this is beyond a dream because it is truly unimaginable and was included in my dream sequence. To be with my life-long friend Bob Vokey is surreal and adds to this extreme honour. I find my myself humbled by this honour and the continued love and support of the golf community. There are truly no strangers in golf, there is only friends we haven’t met yet.” – Peter Broome

Three of her majors came on Canadian soil, having won the du Marier Classic in 1980 and back-to-back in 1985 and 1986. The former du Maurier Classic (now CPKC Women’s Open) was considered a major on the LPGA Tour from 1979 to 2000.

Bradley went on to add her second major in 1981 at the U.S. Women’s Open. In 1986, she enjoyed arguably her most successful season on Tour. In addition to successfully defending her Canadian Open title, Bradley added two additional major wins that season, winning the Nabisco Dinah Shore and LPGA Championship. In doing so, Bradley became only the third woman to win three majors in a single season, joining Babe Zaharias (1950) and Mickey Wright (1961). That season, Bradley was named as the LPGA Tour Player of the Year and Vare Trophy Recipient, she would earn both honours again in 1991. Her 31 LPGA Tour wins places her 17th on the LPGA’s all-time wins list.

Bradley was also a member of the United States Solheim Cup Team on three occasions as a player (1990, 1992, 1996), winning in 1990 and again in 1996. She also served as Team Captain in 2000.

Bradley remains the only player in history to have won the du Maurier Classic three times while it held major championship status. In addition, she is one of only two players to have successfully defended her Canadian Open Championship in tournament history, with fellow three-time winner Lydia Ko accomplishing the same feat in 2012 and 2013.

Bradley was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and the LPGA Tour Hall of Fame in 1991.

“I always looked forward to playing in Canada 🇨🇦 most importantly the tournaments were Majors on the LPGA. The Great Sandra Post and Jocelyne Bourassa were wonderful role models to me. Growing up in Massachusetts the courses I won on, St. George’s Golf Club, Beaconsfield

Golf Club and Board of Trade Country Club reminded me of home. I so enjoyed my playing day’s with Canadians Dawn Coe-Jones, Gail Graham and Lori Kane.” – Pat Bradley
