That was an epic fold in US Open by the leader, Thompson . . . but that's also golf, particularly in that tourney.

I actually was impressed how Thompson kept her composure as the lug bolts loosened and the wheels completely came off on the back 9, and she putted poorly on 17 and 18.  But this one is going to haunt her for a loooooooong time.

I blame her caddie. He got excited and nervous and was increasingly in her ear on every shot on the back nine. "You need to be close", etc. in a yapping voice. He would make me nervous and I'm not even playing.


Ganne, otoh, holed a par putt on 18 to earn low amateur.  Nicely done.  Great talent; great smile.

Dont know what happened there. I'm the "I blame her caddie" poster. Agree with last point re Ganne also.
