Springfield Ladies Horton Smith Cup Team

The Annual competition between Springfield ladies and Joplin ladies to honor the legacy of Horton Smith, the first winner of The Masters!

Tammy Thomas - Golf 🏌🏻‍♀️
The Joplin area has long had a rich tradition in golf, and Thomas is among those who have further enhanced the sport’s growth since arriving in Missouri in the late 1970s. An Iowa transplant, she graduated from Missouri Southern State University in 1981 and started playing golf her mid-20s. That started what would be an impactful career on the Joplin scene, as Thomas has been associated with the Joplin Women’s Horton Smith team since 1991, when she was in a five-way playoff for the last spot on the team. She was captain several years in the 1990s and 2000s, and has played a key role in helping the team reach its 92nd anniversary this year. Additionally, she joined the Briarbrook Women’s Golf Association in 1988 and has been an active member since, serving on its Board of Directors from 1988 to 1994 and, since 2015, has been President of the Briarbrook Community Improvement District for Briarbrook Golf Course. In 1994, she was one of the founding members of the Greater Joplin Women’s Golf Association until it dissolved in 2015. Her organizations have organized several tournaments, including several for charities, and has helped support girls golf at Carl Junction High School and Missouri Southern. Thomas has been a longtime administrator for Webb City Public Schools dating back to 1981.
