Sister, sister: Duke's Maguire twins a delightful combination

BRADENTON, Fla. –– Leona Maguire won the 2012 Irish Girls Stroke Play Championship, but it was her sister Lisa’s name that was engraved on the trophy.

“I was super happy about that,” said Lisa, who found out about it when the next year’s winner sent her a congratulations text.

Mixups with these Irish twins are commonplace.
