Former University of Tulsa standouts Ron Streck and Stacy Prammanasudh will be inducted into the Oklahoma Golf Hall of Fame on Nov. 12 at Southern Hills Country Club.
Also inducted will be Mike Hughett, Morri Rose and Bo Wininger.
“This year’s inductees represent different aspects and contributions to the game of golf, and to the state of Oklahoma,” said Oklahoma Golf HOF chairman Tom Jones in a news release.
“The 2023 class encompasses players from the professional ranks, an amateur that has more state titles than anyone on record, to an administrative director, visionary, and mentor to young players across the state.
“The Oklahoma Golf Hall of Fame is proud to showcase the rich history and heritage that this class represents.”
Streck, a Cascia Hall graduate, had a 40-year pro career on either the PGA Tour, PGA Tour Champions or what is now known as the Korn Ferry Tour. He was the first player to win at all three of those levels while also winning an event on the European Tour. Streck was among the first to regularly use metal drivers and the first to win using one when he captured the 1978 San Antonio Texas Open. He set a then-record for the PGA Tour’s lowest two-round total over the final 36 holes. Streck also won the 1981 Michelob-Houston Open.
