FeDerationThe following were present at the Biennial Meeting held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, Adelaide, Australia on 13 october 2008:

62 Member organizations were in attendance.
Sweden held the lead from the start to finish and won the 2008 Women’s World Amateur Team Championship by 12 strokes over Spain and 14 over the USA at Grange Golf Club’s East and West courses in Adelaide, Australia.
With a 3-under-par 69 from Anna Nordqvist and a 2-under-par 70 from Caroline Hedwall, the Swedes finished at 19-under-par 561. Their 12-stroke margin of victory was the most since the USA won by 21 in 1998. Pernilla Lindberg was the third member of the winning team.
“It’s a fantastic feeling,” Swedish captain Walter Danewid said. “I am not surprised we are here because they are really good players. It’s been advertised that this event would have the stars of tomorrow. They lived up to that.”
Sweden, the only team to have finished in the top 10 in all 23 competitions, won its second championship after taking the victory in Puerto Rico in 2004. Their wire-to-wire win was the first in 18 years.
“I was asked: ‘What is the secret to our success?” Danewid said. “It’s hard work. There’s no secret.”
Spain, which was seven strokes behind Sweden after the first round, finished second at 7-under 573 and could not make up the large deficit. “We tried as hard
as we could,” Spanish captain Macarena Campomanes, who was on two Espirito Santo winning teams, said. “But they were too many shots ahead.”
The best rally of the final day came from the USA. Amanda Blumenherst shot 4-under 68 and Tiffany Joh added a 3-under 69
for 137, the second-lowest final-round score in history. The Americans jumped from a tie for 17th after the first day to third.
“The first day was like the wind out of our sails,”’ Blumenherst said. “We definitely fought back and played hard the last three days.”
The Americans posted the lowest score in the final 36
holes (279) in championship history.
Canada finished fourth at 583. The remainder of the top 10 was Japan (584), Germany (585), England (586), Netherlands and Denmark (587) and defending champion South Africa (588).
Although there is not an individual competition, Hedwall was the low scorer at 10-under-par 280.
The winning team receives custody of the Espirito Santo Trophy for the ensuing two years. Members of the winning team receive gold medals. The second- and third-place teams receive silver and bronze medals, respectively.

Sweden held the lead from the start to finish and won the 2008 Women’s World Amateur Team Championship by 12 strokes over Spain and 14 over the USA at Grange Golf Club’s East and West courses in Adelaide, Australia.
With a 3-under-par 69 from Anna Nordqvist and a 2-under-par 70 from Caroline Hedwall, the Swedes finished at 19-under-par 561. Their 12-stroke margin of victory was the most since the USA won by 21 in 1998. Pernilla Lindberg was the third member of the winning team.
“It’s a fantastic feeling,” Swedish captain Walter Danewid said. “I am not surprised we are here because they are really good players. It’s been advertised that this event would have the stars of tomorrow. They lived up to that.”
Sweden, the only team to have finished in the top 10 in all 23 competitions, won its second championship after taking the victory in Puerto Rico in 2004. Their wire-to-wire win was the first in 18 years.
“I was asked: ‘What is the secret to our success?” Danewid said. “It’s hard work. There’s no secret.”
Spain, which was seven strokes behind Sweden after the first round, finished second at 7-under 573 and could not make up the large deficit. “We tried as hard
as we could,” Spanish captain Macarena Campomanes, who was on two Espirito Santo winning teams, said. “But they were too many shots ahead.”
The best rally of the final day came from the USA. Amanda Blumenherst shot 4-under 68 and Tiffany Joh added a 3-under 69
for 137, the second-lowest final-round score in history. The Americans jumped from a tie for 17th after the first day to third.
“The first day was like the wind out of our sails,”’ Blumenherst said. “We definitely fought back and played hard the last three days.”
The Americans posted the lowest score in the final 36
holes (279) in championship history.
Canada finished fourth at 583. The remainder of the top 10 was Japan (584), Germany (585), England (586), Netherlands and Denmark (587) and defending champion South Africa (588).
Although there is not an individual competition, Hedwall was the low scorer at 10-under-par 280.
The winning team receives custody of the Espirito Santo Trophy for the ensuing two years. Members of the winning team receive gold medals. The second- and third-place teams receive silver and bronze medals, respectively.

In blustery conditions, Scotland claimed its first Eisenhower Trophy with a nine-stroke victory in the 2008 World Amateur Team Championship in Adelaide, Australia.
“We set out to try to win but to go out and do it is unbelievable,” said Scotsman Callum Macaulay, who shot 1-under-par 72 in the final round on the Royal Adelaide Golf Club. The Grange Golf Club also played host to the 2008 championship.
Combining Macaulay’s score with a 2-over-par 75 from Gavin Dear, Scotland finished with a 20-under-par total of 560 for 72 holes, the second-best score since three-player teams were instituted in 2002.
Beginning the final round with a four-stroke lead over the USA, the Scots started strongly with Macaulay leading the way by birdieing five holes in his first nine. That early pace moved the Scots further ahead of the contending Americans and Swedes, who finished second and third at 569 and 574, respectively. Scotland’s final round 1-over-par 147 was five strokes better than the USA and six better than Sweden.
“We got off to a slow start and made some bogeys early and then we were really in a hole,” USA captain Walter Driver said. “There were very testing conditions with the wind blowing hard. Obviously, the Scots loved it. They played well.”
Dear agreed that the wind, which increased as the day progressed, was in the Scots’ favor.
“It helps because we feel we are all good wind players,” Dear said. “It was good to have it blowing a mere gale because we can cope with the conditions and we know that par is a good score.”
Wallace Booth also contributed two sub-par scores for the champions.
Even with a large lead, Scottish captain George Crawford did not feel secure with victory until the 17th hole.
“I somewhat felt we were in a strong position after 14,” Crawford said. “But, ultimately it wasn’t sure until we played the 17th, where Gavin chipped in for an eagle and Callum made birdie.”
Finishing the top 10 were France and Italy tied
for fourth; Australia in sixth, defending champion Netherlands and Spain tied for seventh and Argentina and Canada tied for ninth.
Although there is not an individual competition, Rickie Fowler of the USA was the low scorer at 10-under-par 280.
The Scots were playing for just the fourth time under their own flag with a best finish of tied for sixth in 2006. Four times – 1964, 1976, 1988 and 1998 – individual Scots have been part of gold medal winning Great Britain and Ireland teams. From 1958 to 2000, the Scots were part of that team. In 2002, when the championship moved from four-player to three-player teams, they made their debut.

HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL GOLF FEDERATION
Dilemma, but a good one:By the 1950s, the United States Golf Association (USGA) has received too many invitations for international matches against individual countries to be able to accept them all.
January, 1958:The USGA executive Committee, discussing yet another of these generous invitations – this time from Japan – proposes the establishment of an international team competition so that all countries can participate in these types of events.
March, 1958:Representatives from the USGA travel to Scotland to discuss the idea with representatives of The Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, Scotland (The R&A). The concept is enthusiastically received.
May, 1958:Representatives from 35 countries meet in washington, D.C., USA, hosted by the USGA and The R&A, to establish the world Amateur Golf Council (wAGC), so that it may conduct the world Amateur Team Championship. The meeting is arranged through cooperation with Pan American Airlines and the U.S. Department of State, and the trips of all attendees are funded by an anonymous group, the Friends of American Golf. President Dwight D. eisenhower welcomes the group in the white House Rose Garden. The Council is begun with 32 Member organizations and governing Articles are established.
October, 1958:The first Championship is hosted by The R&A on the old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland. The Australian team defeats the American team in an 18-hole play-off by two strokes. Bob Jones is the Captain of the USA team.
September, 1960:The second Championship is hosted by the USGA at Merion Golf Club (east Course) in Ardmore, Pennsylvania. Although the original 1958 Delegates envisioned that the Championship would be match play by this year, it has remained at stroke play through the present day. Jack nicklaus’s 72-hole record of 269 at Merion GC still stands today.
1964:
The French Golf Federation proposes that the USA Curtis Cup Team stop in France for an informal match following the Curtis Cup Match in wales. The USGA accepts the invitation but also suggests inviting other nations to create a women’s counterpart to the world Amateur Team Championship. The French are delighted to do so.
Vicomtesse de Saint Sauveur (known to many as Lally Segard), of France, and Mrs. Henri Prunaret, of the United States, planned the Championship.
October, 1964: The French Golf Federation holds the first women’s world Amateur Team Championship. Twenty-five teams compete. France beats the USA by one stroke.

HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL GOLF FEDERATION
Dilemma, but a good one:By the 1950s, the United States Golf Association (USGA) has received too many invitations for international matches against individual countries to be able to accept them all.
January, 1958:The USGA executive Committee, discussing yet another of these generous invitations – this time from Japan – proposes the establishment of an international team competition so that all countries can participate in these types of events.
March, 1958:Representatives from the USGA travel to Scotland to discuss the idea with representatives of The Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, Scotland (The R&A). The concept is enthusiastically received.
May, 1958:Representatives from 35 countries meet in washington, D.C., USA, hosted by the USGA and The R&A, to establish the world Amateur Golf Council (wAGC), so that it may conduct the world Amateur Team Championship. The meeting is arranged through cooperation with Pan American Airlines and the U.S. Department of State, and the trips of all attendees are funded by an anonymous group, the Friends of American Golf. President Dwight D. eisenhower welcomes the group in the white House Rose Garden. The Council is begun with 32 Member organizations and governing Articles are established.
October, 1958:The first Championship is hosted by The R&A on the old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland. The Australian team defeats the American team in an 18-hole play-off by two strokes. Bob Jones is the Captain of the USA team.
September, 1960:The second Championship is hosted by the USGA at Merion Golf Club (east Course) in Ardmore, Pennsylvania. Although the original 1958 Delegates envisioned that the Championship would be match play by this year, it has remained at stroke play through the present day. Jack nicklaus’s 72-hole record of 269 at Merion GC still stands today.
1964:
The French Golf Federation proposes that the USA Curtis Cup Team stop in France for an informal match following the Curtis Cup Match in wales. The USGA accepts the invitation but also suggests inviting other nations to create a women’s counterpart to the world Amateur Team Championship. The French are delighted to do so.
Vicomtesse de Saint Sauveur (known to many as Lally Segard), of France, and Mrs. Henri Prunaret, of the United States, planned the Championship.
October, 1964: The French Golf Federation holds the first women’s world Amateur Team Championship. Twenty-five teams compete. France beats the USA by one stroke.
with sincere thanks to France, it is unanimously agreed that the world Amateur Golf Council will hereafter conduct the women’s event.
1991:The world Amateur Golf Council becomes affiliated to the International olympic Committee as its recognized International Federation for golf.
2003:
The world Amateur Golf Council changes its name to the International Golf Federation.

THE TROPHIES
Espirito SantoThe Cup once belonged to the Tsar of Russia, nicolas II. It is rumored to once have been gold plated. After the Russian Revolution of 1917 the precious belongings of the Royal Family were scattered in auction sales and Ricardo and Silvia espirito Santo of Portugal bought the Cup. The original intention was for a Portuguese International event, but as it was only played once or twice the Trophy then had no destination. Vicomtesse de Saint Sauveur, the co-founder of the women’s world Amateur Team Championship in 1964, contacted the espirito Santos when she heard the Cup might be available. They were thrilled to offer the Trophy, through the Portuguese Golf Federation, for the inaugural event in France.
Eisenhowerwith the blessing of Dwight D. eisenhower, 34th President of the United States of America, the world Amateur Team Championship is played for the eisenhower Trophy. It is inscribed, “To foster friendship and sportsmanship among the Peoples of the world,” the IGF’s guiding principle. The trophy was presented, via the United States Golf Association and The Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, Scotland (now The R&A), by the Friends of American Golf for the inaugural world Amateur Team Championship played on the old Course in St. Andrews in 1958.
