Helen Alfredsson - Part 1 (The Early Years)

Helen Alfredsson, winner of the 1993 Dinah Shore, joins Bruce and Mike and begins her story as a child in Gothenburg, Sweden. A multi-sport athlete in her youth, Helen was introduced to golf by her father, himself an accomplished athlete, at age 11. She showed a natural ability that earned her a spot on Sweden's National Junior and Amateur teams, the youngest ever at age 14. Helen won several national championships before representing Sweden in the 1986 and 1988 Espirito Santo competitions. Following in the footsteps of her fellow countrywomen Pia Nilsson and Charlotte Montgomery, she came to America to play collegiately at U.S. International University in San Diego. Soon after graduation Helen was about to set off on a remarkable professional career. Helen Alfredsson takes us back to her start in golf, "FORE the Good of the Game."
