The last time Kristine Franklin raised a CGA/CWGA trophy that she’d won, her name was Kris Hoos, she wasn’t yet married or had any kids, she hadn’t yet turned pro — and it was 32 years ago.
On Tuesday — seemingly a lifetime after winning the 1986 CWGA Stroke Play, now with a family that includes a husband and two sons, and having long ago regained her amateur status — Franklin revisited the good old days by winning her second CGA/CWGA title.
And not only did the Broomfield resident capture the title in the CGA Women’s Senior Stroke Play, she did so by beating five-time champion Kim Eaton — and on Eaton’s home course of her younger days, Greeley Country Club.
“To play well enough against her was wonderful,” said the 52-year-old Franklin. “I love that she hit such great shots (into greens) right after me. That was really neat. She’s such a competitor. To play against her and be on top was unbelievable.”
After three-putting the 18th green — missing a 4-foot par attempt — in Tuesday’s final round to allow a playoff, Franklin landed the victory with a par on the first hole of sudden death as an uncharacteristic shank by Eaton on her greenside pitch shot led to a bogey.
“She gave me a break on 18 by missing that putt, then I go and do that,” said a frustrated Eaton, who had missed a 3-foot par putt on that same hole earlier in the day. “I would at least like to have given her a little better fight (in the playoff).”
Franklin, wife of University of Colorado women’s golf assistant coach Brent Franklin and the mother of one of the top junior players in the state (Franklin, younger brother of Jaxon), played her final 12 holes of regulation in even-par, shooting her second straight 2-over-par 74. That left the golfer from Colorado National (left and above) tied with Eaton, who had led by one stroke after 12 holes on Tuesday but bogeyed three times in her final seven holes, including the playoff. Eaton, a 59-year-old who now lives in Mesa, Ariz., missed two birdie putts inside of 10 feet on the 15th and 16th holes.
In sudden death, after Eaton’s shank (below) had resulted in a bogey, Franklin putted from just over the green, 20 feet from the flag, to within 6 inches and tapped in for the title.
After being under pressure with good shots by Eaton all day, Franklin was relieved to win it in relatively easy fashion.
“To have it end that way, I was so thankful,” said Franklin, who opted not to know where she stood all day, until a conversation with cartmate Eaton made it apparent heading up to the 18th green that she was one ahead.
“I’m like, ‘Why did I say anything?’ You are so stupid.”’ Franklin said of being informed of her status relative to Eaton.
Franklin, a former director of operations for Ricardo Patton when the latter was the head men’s basketball coach at CU, dedicated Tuesday’s win to her dad, George Hoos, a longtime high school golf coach in Boulder and a fixture in the Colorado golf community, who is battling leukemia.
“I really wanted to do this for my dad,” said Franklin, who returned to competitive golf just last year after a layoff of 18 years. “I just can’t wait to tell my dad (about winning).
“I get so much joy from watching my kids play. I didn’t realize that back when I played that my parents got that much joy. So I thought maybe if I started playing again …”
Franklin had a friend, Lara Tennant, talk her into returning to competition in 2017 after last competing in the 1999 Colorado Women’s Open, where she lost in a playoff to Shannon Hanley. So last year she played in the Women’s Trans National Senior Four-Ball, then qualified for the U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur and made match play. And this year in Colorado, she’s taken it up a notch, finishing second in the CGA Women’s Senior Match Play and winning on Tuesday.
So how has it been playing in these events after so long — and winning?
“It’s really exciting,” Franklin said. “The thing I enjoy most is meeting some of the ladies out here. They’re so nice and a real treat to play with.
“I drive up in the morning and am like, ‘Why am I doing this?’ because I get the nerves. But I think the more I practice and the more I work on my mental game, I hope it’ll be a better drive up to each of the tournaments. I think I’d like to keep competing.”
But while that’s the case, Franklin also will be on the golf course trying to help build the games of teenagers. Her brother, Eric Hoos, a former University of Denver men’s golf head coach who once won an event on the Web.com Tour, has taken on head coaching duties at Prospect Ridge Academy, where Walker Franklin plays. And with Eric on board, Kristine has committed to be an assistant coach, a role in which she’s currently enmeshed.
Franklin, who played professionally in Japan for about seven years, joined Jill Gaschler (2015) as the only players who have beaten Eaton in a CGA Women’s Senior Stroke Play. The last time Greeley Country Club had hosted the event, in 2012, Eaton won by 16 shots. But that year, Eaton shot just one stroke better over 36 holes than her total this week (148).
Eaton (left), a four-time quarterfinalist in the U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur, is seeking her 26th career CGA/CWGA championship, which would give her sole possession of the record she now shares with fellow Colorado Golf Hall of Famer Carol Flenniken. Eaton said her next opportunity for No. 26 won’t come until next year.
Asked if falling short on Tuesday was more painful, given it was at her old home course, Eaton said, “It’s more painful in that I feel like I have a target on my back and everybody is out to get me (as the favorite). I just want to win it so I can get it over with.
“I was a little nervous on the back nine just because I wanted to get it over with and not have to worry about it anymore.”
Finishing third behind Franklin and Eaton on Tuesday was 2018 CGA Women’s Senior Match Play champion Tiffany Maurycy (below) of Cherry Creek Country Club, who closed with a 75 for a 153 total.
Colorado Golf Hall of Famer Janet Moore of Cherry Hills Country Club placed fourth at 154 after a second-round rally was derailed by a triple-bogey at the 11th hole en route to a 75. Coincidentally, Moore and Franklin were college teammates at the University of Arizona.
Audrey McEwen of Coal Creek Golf Course, who won the seventh-flight gross competition, had one of the highights of the tournament as she made a hole-in-one — the first of her life — on the 117-yard second hole on Tuesday.

The Colorado Golf Hall of Famer, competing at the course where she grew up, finds herself in second place at the halfway point of the event.
Ahead of her on the championship flight leaderboard is Kristine Franklin of Colorado National Golf Club, who shot a 2-over-par 74 in Monday’s first round. Franklin, a former pro and the 1986 CWGA Stroke Play champion, made 16 pars and two bogeys in round 1. Like Eaton, Franklin (left) made match play at last year’s U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur. And Franklin finished runner-up earlier this summer at the CGA Women’s Senior Match Play.
Eaton, who is tied with Carol Flenniken for most career victories in CGA women’s/CWGA events (25), posted a 16-shot victory the last time the Senior Stroke Play was held at Greeley CC, in 2012. But the scoreboard is much more tightly packed this time around.
On Monday, Eaton carded three birdies, four bogeys and a double bogey of her 75. The 59-year-old has previously won the Senior Stroke Play in 2009, ’10, ’12, ’13 and ’17. A sixth title in this event would tie the Senior Stroke Play record set by Lynn Larson in 2001.
Cindy Snow of The Pinery Country Club sits in third place after a 77. And three players share fourth place at 78 — Tiffany Maurycy of Cherry Creek Country Club, winner of the 2018 CGA Women’s Senior Match Play; Kathy West of Castle Pines Golf Club; and Louise Lyle of Eisenhower Golf Club.
And Colorado Golf Hall of Famer Janet Moore of Cherry Hills Country Club opened with a 79 and is in seventh place.
The 36-hole championship will conclude with Tuesday’s round.

Competing at a course she estimated at the time that she’s played more than 1,000 times, Eaton lapped the field in her old hometown of Greeley, prevailing by 16 strokes in a 36-hole event six years ago.
We bring that up now because the Women’s Senior Stroke Play will return to Greeley CC next week — specifically Monday and Tuesday. And Eaton (left) — a Colorado Golf Hall of Famer who has now won the championship five times, including last year — will be in the field looking for a shot at history.
Should she prevail at her old home club, it would be the 26th CGA/CWGA title of her career, which would break the record she currently shares with another Hall of Famer, Carol Flenniken.
Eaton, who recently turned 59 and is now a full-time resident of Arizona, has won four Stroke Plays, one Match Play, five Senior Stroke Plays, four Senior Match Plays, one Junior Match Play, seven Brassies, one Mashie, one Chapman and one Mixed championship in Colorado.
While Eaton may know the Greeley Country Club course better than anyone in the 104-player Senior Stroke Play field — 14 golfers are in the championship flight — there’s no lack of competitors capable of winning the title next week.
Another Colorado Golf Hall of Famer, Janet Moore of Cherry Hills, teamed up with Eaton to win this year’s CGA Women’s Brassie, which marked her 21st CGA/CWGA win, putting her in the mix for the all-time record when all is eventually said and done. Moore competed this summer in the inaugural U.S. Senior Women’s Open.
Also scheduled to be in the field in Greeley are 2016 champion Deb Hughes of Green Valley Ranch, 2018 CGA Women’s Senior Match Play winner Tiffany Maurycy of Cherry Creek, and two players who advanced to match play at the 2017 U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur (along with Eaton), Kristine Franklin of Colorado National and Susan Hartwell of Hyland Hills.

]]>Editor’s Note: With the CGA celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding in 1915, this is the second monthly installment of a series of stories looking back on the last century of golf in Colorado. All the articles will be published on ColoradoGolf.org. This chapter focuses on the period from 1915-1924. For a list of all installments to date, CLICK HERE.
While there were certainly very notable happenings in the history of Colorado golf prior to 1915, the decade starting then marked a watershed for the sport in the Centennial State.
After all, that period included the founding of both the CGA and the CWGA; the first USGA presidency held by a Coloradan; the opening of a club that’s gone on to host more major championships and USGA championships than any other in Colorado (Cherry Hills Country Club) and of another club that’s been home to the second-most USGA championships in Colorado history (the Broadmoor); and the debut of what would become one of the country’s top amateur tournaments (the Broadmoor Invitation).
That’s what you call laying a strong foundation for golf in the state.
But before we continue with that, let’s briefly note what preceded the CGA’s founding.
A half-dozen golf courses in Colorado that opened prior to World War I remain vibrant to this day. That list includes Overland Park in Denver (left, circa 1895), Denver Country Club, Patty Jewett in Colorado Springs, Pueblo Country Club, Lakewood Country Club (then known as The Colorado Golf Club), and City Park in Denver. And there’s been some indication that other courses can trace their lineage back to pre-World War I, including perhaps Greeley Country Club.
Denver Country Club was one of the original 15 clubs in the Trans-Mississippi Golf Association (as was the Town & Gown Golf Club of Colorado Springs), and in the early years DCC hosted the Trans-Miss Championship in 1910 (won by a gentleman by the name of Harry Legg) and 1921 (George Von Elm). DCC was also the site of the 1912 Western Amateur won by Chick Evans, now best known as the founder of the Evans Scholarship for caddies. Evans would go on to capture eight Western Amateur titles in addition to two U.S. Amateurs and the 1916 U.S. Open.
Even though the CGA wasn’t founded until 1915, the tournament now known as the CGA Match Play dates back to 1901, making it the oldest continuously held state golf championship in Colorado. Frank Woodward, who played an exhibition match at Overland against the famed Harry Vardon during Vardon’s nationwide tour in 1900, captured the first Match Play title. (Keep his name in mind for a little history he’ll make later.)
Walter Fairbanks (pictured at top), also part of the Vardon exhibition, strung together four consecutive Match Play titles from 1902-05, a feat that remains unmatched in tournament history. But by far the most successful performer overall in the Match Play was Dr. Larry Bromfield, who won eight titles between 1912-28.
As for the specific decade at hand (1915-24), here are some of the highlights:
— The Colorado Golf Association was formally founded on Aug. 20, 1915. A two-paragraph Denver Post story noted that the “organization will control the state tournaments, give the cups and appoint the officers, and the winner will be the recognized champion of the association and state.”
M.A. McLaughlin of Lakewood Country Club was elected the first president. That same year, coincidentally, McLaughlin won the first of his two CGA Match Plays, this time defeating Bromfield. McLaughlin had been the Match Play runner-up the previous three years.
— The following year, on March 14, 1916, the Colorado Women’s Golf Association came into being when eight women met and elected a president, adopted a constitution and bylaws, and delineated the association’s objectives and purpose: to promote and maintain the best interests of the game of golf; to hold golf tournaments; and to promote good fellowship among member clubs.” Mrs. Olyn Hemming was named the CWGA’s first president.
In September 2016 the first CWGA Match Play Championship was held, with Mrs. M.A. McLaughlin of Lakewood prevailing for the title.
During the period from 1915-21, the McLaughlins won five CGA/CWGA Match Play titles between them.
— Meanwhile, at this same time, a Coloradan was making some history nationally. The United States Golf Association was founded in 1894, and from then through 1914, all the presidents of the organization had come from the East or Midwest. But Denver Country Club founding member Woodward, winner of the first CGA Match Play 14 years earlier, in 1915 became the first USGA president from the western U.S. He served a two-year term during which the USGA in 1916 stripped the amateur status from 1913 U.S. Open champion Francis Ouimet because Ouimet intended to open a sporting goods store. Ouimet wouldn’t be reinstated until 1918. The next USGA president from Colorado wouldn’t take office until 1980 (Will Nicholson Jr.).
During the period from 1909-20, Woodward would be president of Denver Country Club for five years. He was also a chairman of the Western Golf Association and the Trans Mississippi Golf Association.
— During the period from 1915-24, two of Colorado’s most famous courses opened, with the Donald Ross-designed Broadmoor Golf Club coming online in 1918 and William Flynn-designed Cherry Hills in 1922. Between them, Cherry Hills and the Broadmoor have hosted 16 USGA championships and 10 major championships (PGA, LPGA and Champions tours combined).
— In 1921, the Broadmoor debuted the Broadmoor Invitation (sometimes referred to as the Broadmoor Amateur Open in the early years), which would become one of the most prestigious amateur tournaments in the country. From 1921 to ’95, the tournament built a reputation for crowning top-notch champions. Among the winners of the tournament over those years — the event returned in 2014 as a scratch four-ball — were Hale Irwin, Lawson Little, Tom Purtzer, Grier Jones, Duffy Waldorf, Bob Dickson, John Fought and Willie Wood — all of whom went on to win on the PGA Tour — as well as Charlie Coe and locals N.C. “Tub” Morris (his 1922 Broadmoor Invitation medalist honor is pictured above), Bill Loeffler and Jim English.
As for the Broadmoor Ladies Invitation, its most famous champion would be Babe Zaharias, who won the event three consecutive years beginning in 1945.
All in all, the decade beginning in 1915 — along with the period leading up to it — had Colorado golf off to a rousing start through the first quarter of the 20th century. But many ups and downs awaited in the years to come.
Next up: 1925-34.
After Mary Doyen birdied her first hole in Tuesday’s final round of the CWGA Senior Stroke Play Championship, a thought occurred to her: “If I can do that every hole, maybe I’d have a chance” to win.
Yes, that’s how lopsided the tournament was at Greeley Country Club.
Doyen, the defending champion, only exaggerated slightly in inferring it would have taken near perfection for her — or just about anyone else in the field — to overtake Kim Eaton on the final day of the Senior Stroke Play.
Eaton, a Colorado Golf Hall of Famer who was competing on a course she estimates she’s played more than 1,000 times, took a six-stroke lead into Tuesday’s final round, and she was nine shots ahead of the third-place golfer.
And that was just the beginning. Eaton extended that lead considerably on Tuesday, to the point that her victory margin was one of the largest — if not the largest — in CWGA championship history.
The records are far from comprehensive, but it’s hard to imagine many wins bigger than 16 strokes. That’s how much separated Eaton from runner-up Doyen.
Eaton won her third Senior Stroke Play — she missed last year’s tournament — and her 19th CWGA championship overall, but this one was extra special, and it wasn’t because of the margin of victory.
“It’s not so much (claiming the title) the third time that I’m happy about; it’s winning on my home course that I grew up on,” said the 53-year-old former golf professional, a graduate of University High School in Greeley. “I’ve never been able to win a (state) tournament in Greeley until today.”
Eaton shot a 3-over-par 74 on Tuesday and finished at 5-over 147 for two rounds. Doyen, the player from Foothills Golf Course who won the senior division of the CWGA Match Play earlier this summer, closed with a 79 to earn second place at 163. Laurie Steenrod of Saddle Rock and Jessi McVay of CommonGround tied for third at 165.
Eaton was a member at Greeley Country Club — or the daughter of members — most of his life, though she now resides in Tempe, Ariz. So while most of the competitors struggled at the course, Eaton was right in her element. She even had some fans on hand, including her uncle, Larry Eaton, a fellow Colorado Golf Hall of Famer.
“It’s just nice winning in your hometown and having my aunt and uncle out watching me and telling me I played well,” said Kim Eaton, who was coming off a runner-up finish last weekend in the Senior Women’s North and South Championship in Pinehurst, N.C.
Eaton made two birdies in her final five holes Tuesday — including a chip-in on No. 17 (pictured at left) — to make her margin of victory all the more impressive.
“The golf course is set up for me; it’s long, and I hit it long,” she said.
Doyen said Eaton, a quarterfinalist two of the last three years in the USGA Senior Women’s Amateur, is tough to beat anywhere, much less on a course with which she’s so familiar.
“It’s a tough course,” Doyen said. “I understand a little bit better about why Kim Eaton is such a good player, having grown up here, because you get every shot here.”
Tuesday’s victory gives Eaton 10 individual CWGA championships: three Senior Stroke Plays, four Stroke Plays, one Match Play, one Senior Match Play and a Junior Match Play. She’s also captured nine team titles: six Brassies, a Chapman, a Mashie and a Mixed.
Meanwhile, while Doyen was no match for Eaton this week, she rightfully took stock in what she’s accomplished in the last year in the Colorado women’s senior ranks. Doyen held the Senior Match Play and Senior Stroke Play trophies at the same time, and she placed second on Tuesday.
