From 1932 to 1975 Juanita Bay Park was the nine-hole Juanita Golf Course. Legendary American pro Joanne Gunderson Carner learned to golf on the Juanita links. Carner, a Kirkland native, won two U.S. Women's Open and five U.S. Women's Amateur titles, earned 43 wins on the LPGA Tour and three LPGA Player of the Year Awards. Her accomplishments are memorialized in the Kirkland Plaza of Champions in Marina Park.
