Lewis West Oehmig (pronounced EMM-ig; May 11, 1916 – September 25, 2002), was an American amateur golfer from Chattanooga, Tennessee, active in the mid-twentieth century. He is known for his longevity and success in senior-level competition. Over his career he won more than 50 golf tournaments and was inducted into multiple golf halls of fame. In Scotland, Oehmig won the International Seniors Amateur title. He captured the U.S. Senior Amateur title three times. His last victory was at age 69, making him the oldest USGA champion at that time. In Tennessee, Oehmig won eight state golf championships over five decades; the first in 1937 at age 21, and the last in 1974. He played college golf at the University of Virginia. In 1948, after military service, he had promising business opportunities and chose not to play professional golf. Once he reached the age for senior golf competitions, he became a dominant national figure in the sport. He won the Tennessee Golf Association (TGA) Senior Amateur eight times and the state Senior Amateur seven times. In 1977, he was chosen as (non-playing) captain of the U.S. Walker Cup team that defeated Great Britain and Ireland. His achievements earned him the USGA's highest honor, the Bob Jones Award (1994).
