"The Founders" is headed to the big screen.
The documentary film telling the story of the 13 pioneers who founded the LPGA is scheduled for limited release in theaters around the country later this month.
The movie documents the founding of the LPGA in 1950, detailing the story of how the original members overcame obstacles to building the tour while barnstorming the country in a caravan of automobiles. Its storylines include Babe Zaharias’ importance to the tour’s early success and the internal struggles that came with Zaharias’ larger-than-life personality and her rivalry with fellow founder Louise Suggs.
