Who's Afraid of a Little Wind?

Not the T-Joh. From Golfweek.com:Wind gusts in the mid-40s caused second-round play to be suspended twice. Joh was the only player to break 70 Wednesday and one of only three players to break par. The 60 players who completed their round averaged 76.67.
Joh admitted she doesn’t see adverse conditions very often after growing up in Southern California. ...Even Joh, who’s known for often understating her own ability, didn’t do the same when describing Wednesday’s “tornado business.”
“It’s a challenge,” she said. “It was not fun, especially for Dewi (Claire Schreefel of USC), because I was grabbing onto her to keep from getting blown away.”
Schreefel was stern-faced as she struggled with her putter and shot 78. Joh couldn’t help but laugh, especially as she said, “I can’t wait for this to be over,” to a volunteer on the 17th hole.
Joh then hammed it up for her small gallery, pretending to use the gallery ropes to pull herself to the tee as she walked into a strong headwind.

u missed the $ quote
"When I was a freshman, we had a qualifier where balls were rolling all over the green," Joh said. "When I pointed it out to coach, she just stepped on my ball and said, ‘Now you can play it.’ I think for nine holes I shot 54. Jane (Park) eagled the last hole for 53, so it went pretty well."

you're kidding
I wonder if that coach still has a job – kind of a blatent disregard for the rules, wouldn’t you say ? She didn’t say what kind of qualifier – might have just been an in-house quali to see who would play that week – but that would make me wonder.
