Karrie Webb took a selfie when she won the JTBC Founders Cup in March, not realizing how quickly it would catch on.
It now is one of the best traditions going in golf.
LPGA photographer Gabe Roux shot the photo of
Webb taking her own picture with her cellphone, and the LPGA immediately
posted it to its social media channels. Since then, every LPGA Tour
winner has taken a selfie with the trophy.
That included Michelle Wie at the U.S. Women’s Open, and the USGA asked the LPGA to be sure to tag them to the photo on Twitter.
