Joyce learned the game as a child, as did her brother Roger, who lost a playoff for the 1921 Open Championship.

Her play and swing were greatly admired by Bobby Jones, the American champion of the same era.

Jones, who played several exhibition rounds with her, had a very high regard for her game.

An exhibition of memorabilia can be seen at Knightshayes Court in Devon, where she lived.
