Betty Kernot

[3] She played an exhibition match with the leading American golf celebrity player Babe Didrikson (later Zaharias) in 1938.

She reached the final of the 1947 Australian Women's Amateur, losing narrowly to the defending champion Joan Fisher, née Lewis.

[5] She had been the representative of Victoria at the Australian Ladies’ Golf Union in 1939 and she continued after the war in 1948.
