I had a feeling she'd miss it, but then I thought "oh man, c'mon, it's TWO FEET."

You could tell she was going to miss it mid-downstroke.

Her buddies should have said that's a gimme. I never have to putt those. You know - because you don't want to hold up he group behind you, it's a given , etc....

How bad is your putting stroke that a 2 footer is going to hold up groups behind you?! I know this is tongue in cheek!

Yea those are harder to make when you have to replace your ball correctly ;-)

No, seriously, she had an incredible season, and I'm still a fan. Hopefully she builds on it for 2018. I think she probably will.

Well if you treat it like the pros that can take a long time! It's not the putt it self.

Looks shorter than 2 feet to me - seriously it looks like about 2-3 rotations to get to the hole so maybe a foot or less.
Not that I haven't missed some of those, but usually with more break. Terrible push or misread, ether way .... OUCH!

Damn, what a tough break for her.

Is it a tough break, or a really shitty stroke?

Idk a bad break to me is rolling into a divot after landing in the middle of the fairway.

It wasn't a foot or less. TV coverage showed it and I can record it from a better angle if I want, but… some quickie pixel math puts it at at least 18".
