We conclude our interview with the 2004 Women's British Open winner Karen Stupples with a look back on her experience in the majors and the challenges of balancing motherhood and professional golf. Karen fondly recalls representing England and partnering with Dame Laura Davies at the 2005 World Cup in South Africa but the pinnacle of her career team play was at the Solheim Cup where she joined Team Europe as a Captain's pick in 2005 at Crooked Stick and in 2011 at Killeen Castle. After retiring from Tour golf in 2014, Karen turned to broadcasting where she had an early trial run on BBC radio in 2007 before moving to a regular position with the Golf Channel in 2013, finding her niche ably covering women's professional golf in a variety of roles. Karen Stupples wraps up her life story, "FORE the Good of the Game."

In this second of three installments with Karen Stupples we hear her recount her early struggles adjusting to life on the road on the LPGA Tour. Karen broke through for her first professional win at the 2004 Wllch's/Fry's Championship by a commanding five shots, shooting an LPGA record at the time 22 under par. We learn that it was this victory that paved the way for her LET membership and future Solheim Cup participation. Validation of that initial triumph came at the 2004 Women's British Open at Sunningdale where she again prevailed by five strokes after beginning her final round eagle/albatross! With a major in hand, Karen was off to play more in Europe and her quest to qualify for the Solheim Cup was just beginning. Karen Stupples continues her life story, "FORE the Good of the Game."

Two-time U.S. Open winner Andy North recalls his second win at Oakland Hills in 1985, made famous by T.C. Chen for his "two chip" on the fifth hole of the final round.

He takes us back to the 1985 Ryder Cup at the Belfry, when the Europeans began asserting themselves in this bi-annual event, and the U.S. team victory at the 1978 World Cup when partner John Mahaffey and he went 1/2 in the individual play. Listen in as Andy looks back on his broadcasting career, the pride he has for the development of golf in his home state of Wisconsin and for the philanthropic endeavors of his foundation, Andy North & Friends.
