Golf Profiles
The first African American to design, build and own a golf course, William Powell was a true pioneer in golf. After serving in World War II, Powell returned home determined to provide a place for black players to enjoy golf. While working full time, he designed and built Ohio’s Clearview Golf Club, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A member of the PGA, Strong has received numerous awards for his ground breaking career. Strong’s daughter, Renee Powell, was among the first African –American women to play on the LPGA tour, having competed in more than 250 tournaments, she was recently awarded an honorary doctorate by St. Andrews University in Scotland.
