Gole grabs another slice of history

THE records continue to tumble for remarkable Victorian amateur Nadene Gole.

The 55-year-old has been playing the best golf of her life for the past couple of years and last month capped it all off when she grabbed another slice of history.

Gole became the first Australian to win the R & A Senior Women’s Amateur Championship on a course she later described as tough as anything she had ever played, a windswept Saunton Golf Club in Devon, England.

Even then she had to survive a sudden-death playoff with defending champion England’s Jackie Foster.

Nadene Gole is simply the best.

TO become No. 1 in the world – at anything – well, it’s fair to say you’ve beaten the odds.

Yet Nadene Gole has done a lot more than that.

And to be named the world’s top ‘senior’ amateur is a feather in her cap she admits she never thought she’d achieve.

Certainly not when she was born deaf in her left ear and was unable to have a cochlear implant.

And certainly not at the age of four when she suffered a serious burn from boiling water with third-degree burns to the left side of her body, badly damaging her left arm.

Gole was told she would never be able to straighten that arm again.
