**Surprise entry S.M. Lee leads Mizuho Americas**
SEOUL, June 12 (Yonhap) — Journeyman professional golfer S.M. Lee posted a stunning 7-under 65 at the rain-shortened Mobile Bay LPGA Classic on Thursday, grabbing the first-round lead at 20 under.
The South Korean has only one LPGA Tour title to her credit in her 13-year career.
The tournament in Mobile, Alabama, was cut short after 36 holes because of a weather forecast of heavy rain. Players completed two rounds on Friday.
Lee began the second round at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail’s Magnolia Grove Crossings Course with a four-stroke lead but couldn’t match her fireworks from Thursday. She shot 1-under 71, while two-time major winner Brooke Henderson, of Canada, fired 8-under 64 to close the gap to just one heading into the weekend.
Third-round tee times will now begin at 11 a.m. Saturday to avoid potential storms.
Fitzpatrick out of Olympic golf with thumb injury
Fitzpatrick Out of Olympic Golf with Thumb Injury
Olympic golf has been dealt another blow with the withdrawal of Matthew Fitzpatrick from the Tokyo Games due to a thumb injury.
The Englishman, who won the 2016 Olympic silver medal, aggravated an existing thumb issue during the Scottish Open last week. He withdrew from the event after the third round and has now made the decision to pull out of the Olympics to focus on his recovery.
Fitzpatrick’s withdrawal is a major disappointment for Team GB, which is already without world number one Rory McIlroy. The 27-year-old was expected to be one of the team’s key performers, and his absence will leave a significant hole in the lineup.
It is not yet clear how long Fitzpatrick will be out of action, but he is hopeful that he can return to competition in time for the FedEx Cup playoffs.
1 thing Augusta National, Tiger Woods’ indoor golf league have in common
Certainly! Here is the revised and more engaging version of the article excerpt you provided:
1 Thing Augusta National, Tiger Woods’ Indoor Golf League Have in Common
Augusta National Golf Club and Tiger Woods’ innovative indoor golf league share a remarkable similarity that distinguishes them from traditional golf competitions. Both have unveiled stringent regulations regarding player attire, outlining not just what is permissible but also what is off-limits. While Augusta National’s long-standing rule focuses on the iconic green jacket reserved exclusively for tournament champions, Woods’ indoor league takes it a step further with an extensive list of “prohibited attire.”
The league’s dress code explicitly prohibits jeans, t-shirts, shorts, flip-flops, sweatpants, athletic wear (excluding golf-specific clothing), as well as any garments featuring “offensive or vulgar language or imagery.” This broader scope sets a new standard in the realm of golf fashion.
These fresh guidelines reflect a broader trend in the golfing world, with country clubs and golf courses nationwide adopting more stringent dress codes. Recent data from a 2021 survey by the National Golf Foundation reveals that over half of all golf courses in the United States now enforce a dress code policy.
