William and Mousie Powell Award 
Summary
The William and Mousie Powell Award is an award given each year since 1986 by the LPGA Tour to a player who "whose behavior and deeds best exemplifies the spirit, ideals and values of the LPGA." The recipient is selected annually by a vote of LPGA Tour members.[1] The award was renamed to the Founders Award in 2019.[2]
It was established by Mousie Powell, an honorary member and longtime supporter of the LPGA, and named in honor of Powell and her husband, William Powell, a Hollywood actor of the mid-twentieth century.
