American player Kathy Whitworth, who holds the LPGA record of 88 titles, said Wright: "Today lost the golf world is one of her greatest champions. She has contributed so much to my career success and also to my life.
"What a blessing to play alongside Mickey. It was impossible to be around her without knowing that she was a very special person. "
Wright was born in San Diego on February 14, 1935 and became a professional in 1954 after spending a year at Stanford University.
She joined the LPGA Tour the following year and won her first title at the Jacksonville Open in 1956.
She gained her first two majors in 1958 and became a powerhouse in the game, giving her access to the Hall of Fame in 1976.
