Korda overcomes early double, 1 back at Chevron
Lydia Ko has put an early double-bogey behind her to finish one shot off the lead after the opening round of the LPGA’s Chevron Championship. Ko carded four birdies and one bogey on her back nine to find herself sitting just one shot adrift of first-round leader Jennifer Kupcho. Defending champion Patty Tavatanakit found herself in a tie for 30th, three shots off the lead. Nelly Korda started slowly with a double-bogey on her first hole, but rebounded with three birdies in a row. After dropping another shot early on her back nine, the American rallied with three more birdies to finish with an even-par 72 and be in a tie for 20th.
**Bubba Watson Penalized for Rules Violation: A Major Winner’s Stinger Misstep Costs Him the Cut**
In a surprising turn of events, two-time major champion Bubba Watson found himself facing a two-stroke penalty for using a non-conforming club training aid during the second round of the Genesis Scottish Open.
Before his round, Watson utilized a device known as a “stinger” on the practice range, which was later deemed to have given him an unfair advantage under Rule 4.1a. This training aid, specifically designed to help golfers master their stinger shots, is unfortunately not permitted under the Rules of Golf.
The consequence? Watson had to sign for a 72 instead of what could have been a solid 70 and ultimately missed the cut by just one stroke. In light of this incident, he has expressed his regret and clarified that it was never his intention to violate any rules.
