The first time Patty Sheehan met Juli Inkster was in the 1970s at the California Women’s Amateur at Pebble Beach Golf Links. Back then, tournament founder Helen Lengfeld, a legend in California golf circles, handed each contestant a lucky penny when she checked in. Winners received a piece of silver from her personal collection. Sheehan and Inkster combined for three titles from 1977 to 1981 and cherished each memory made along American golf’s most iconic coast.
