Keenie
Carol Clark Johnson’s most well-known nickname is “Keenie,” but there was a time when “little,” “tiny” and even “diminutive” all came into play. That’s how she often was described in local newspaper accounts of her competition exploits, but the references were only to her stature and contradict the impact she’s had on golf – not just locally, but around the world. Besides being a trailblazer for female athletes, the Wyoming native earned renown for her efforts in helping establish the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) and her relentless approach to teaching golf.
