DQ leaves Ahn stunned, agent says

Shi Hyun Ahn is stunned in the aftermath of her disqualification last week in Canada, according to her agent, Vicki Lee.

Lee, who spoke on behalf of Ahn with Golfweek, said no words were exchanged between Ahn and her caddie in regards to playing the wrong ball before Ahn walked into the scoring tent. It was only after Ahn signed her scorecard that she realized the mistake, when playing partner Il Mi Chung brought it to her attention. The notion that she informed her caddie to keep

quiet about the situation simply is false, she said. Ahn’s caddie, whose identity could not be confirmed, (how can a person carrying a bag for an LPGA player be on the course and no one knows that person's name???) could not be reached for comment. Continue reading...
