Exact result row: 1949 (Aug. 15-19) Marlene Bauer d. Barbara Bruning , 2 up; Philadelphia (Pa.) C.C. (Bala Course); All Match Play; Entries: 33 Use the championship final, not the qualifying medalist. Match-play outcomes are not stroke totals. Current routing, scorecard and par are not asserted. The USGA identifies Philadelphia Country Club Bala Course. The Club owner history confirms that Bala and Spring Mill were separate properties operated simultaneously until 1957. This is not modern Spring Mill, Centennial or the separate Bala Golf Club. The historical Course identity and its geographic presentation remain held; publish the confirmed institution only.
