Pauline Whittier

Pauline "Polly" Whittier was an American golfer, born in Boston, Massachusetts on December 9, 1876, and died on March 3, 1946. She was the daughter of Colonel Charles A. Whittier. She took part in the first Olympic golf competition at the 1900 Summer Olympics, entered for Switzerland rather than the United States, and won the silver medal in the women's competition. In 1904 she married Ernest Iselin, a son of Adrian Iselin Jr. The English Wikipedia article is short, so this entry records only what it states and leaves her wider golfing life to a later pass with the Olympic register sources.
