In 2018, Powell became the first American to be honored by the University of St. Andrews with the dedication of a residence hall --- Renee Powell Hall.

In April 2019, Powell was elected the first At-Large Director of the PGA of America Board of Directors. That month, Powell also made a one-year commitment to serve as girls’ golf coach at Minerva (Ohio) High School, where her late father, William, was a member of the town’s first prep golf team.

Powell is the only daughter of William Powell, the only African-American to design, build, own, and operate a golf course in the United States. Mr. Powell was inducted posthumously March 12, 2013, into the PGA of America Hall of Fame.

In 2011, Renee founded Clearview HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere), which is the sole year-round women’s military rehabilitative golf program in the country. The chapter currently serves nearly 60 female veterans from throughout Northern Ohio.

Introduced to golf and coached by her father, a PGA Life Member and the 2009 PGA Distinguished Service Award recipient, Powell began playing golf at age 3. She entered her first amateur tournament at age 12 and won her division. Three years later, she had 30 youth tournament trophies. She graduated from Central Catholic High School in Canton in 1964 and attended Ohio University and Ohio State University, serving as captain of the women’s golf team at each institution. Powell made her professional debut on the LPGA Tour in 1967, and her first tournament was the U.S. Women's Open. She competed in 250 professional golf tournaments and won the 1973 Kelly Springfield Open in Brisbane, Australia, posting a final-round 67 to set a course record.

Powell was chosen to represent the United States in the U.S. vs. Japan Team Matches on four separate occasions during the 1970’s. Team members include other notables such as Kathy Whitworth, Carol Mann, Pat Bradley, Sandra Post, Donna Caponi-Byrnes and Susie Berning. In each of Renee’s four matches, her team won.

Powell was invited to participate in King Hassan’s Tournament in Morocco and was the only American golf professional to play in President Jawara’s Tournament in Gambia. President Kaunda of Zambia personally invited Renee to play with him at the State House Golf Course, the first woman golfer to do so.

During the 1970s Renee was part of the USO Tour to Vietnam. Joined by her friend, Mary Lou Daniel (Crocker), and one-armed trick-shot artist, Jimmy Nichols, they gave golf clinics in hopes of bringing “a little bit of home” to our troops abroad.

In 1979, Powell made history by becoming the first woman to be named Head Professional at a golf course in the United Kingdom - Silvermere, an hour southwest of London. At that same time, she wrote another piece of history in England by competing with men in a professional event from the same set of tees.

While in England, Renee began designing and promoting golf, tennis, and jogging clothes for McCarthy Sports of London. Harrod’s of London was the first store to purchase the line and did a front window display of Renee’s design. She also wrote instructional articles for Par Golf Magazine. In 1980, Powell finished her Tour career and taught golf in Africa and Europe and later returned home to Canton where she currently serves as the head professional golfer at Clearview Golf Club. In 2001, Clearview Golf Club was named to the National Register of Historic Places by the U.S. Department of the Interior.

Powell has made numerous trips to Africa, serving as a goodwill ambassador of the game of golf.

The Powell family established the Clearview Legacy Foundation for education, preservation and turf grass research. In 2003, Renee Powell was the recipient of the PGA First Lady of Golf Award.

In founding Clearview HOPE, which now has nearly 60 members, Powell entered a new chapter in giving back to the game of golf. Clearview HOPE, an outgrowth of PGA HOPE, is sanctioned by both The PGA of America and the Veterans Administration. It features both golf instruction and events that evolved into a year-round social group. Clearview HOPE reaches out to assist and support veterans who are in need that have yet to become participants in the program.
