Vice President of the Champions Golf Club in Spring and current captain of the women’s U.S. Curtis Cup team, Robin Burke was inducted into the Texas Golf Hall of Fame Oct. 10 in the Amateur category. Burke started her golfing career when she was still in high school, in 10th grade. “I started because the golf coach recruited me and said we need to start a team,” Burke said. “That’s how it started. I couldn’t break a 100.” Burke is a two-time Texas women’s amateur champion and an eight-time Houston women’s amateur champion. She reached the finals of the 1997 U.S. Women’s Amateur championship and made the semifinals of three U.S. women’s Mid-Amateur Championships. She owns Champions Golf Club with her husband, Jack Burke, Jr., who was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1978. The couple is the first husband and wife couple in the Texas Golf Hall of Fame. The Texas Golf Hall of Fame was founded in 1978 and is located outside of Willis. It serves to create awareness of golfers, golf courses and golf personalities in the state. “It’s an honor to be in the hall of fame and follow my husband and his father and the Champions Golf Club in the Hall of Fame,” Burke said. “I’m thrilled. I’m just very happy to be a part of that Texas history.”
