Emily Kristine Pedersen recorded a 10 on the closing par-5 18th to miss the cut at the Chevron Championship after a deflating 78. She was, understandably, down after that disaster.
But the European Solheim Cup player rebounded with a share of 18th last week at the Lotte Championship in Hawaii and now co-leads with Nasa Hataoka after an opening 4-under 67 at the DIO Implant LA Open. She’s thrilled to see her momentum so radically shift.
“I think you need a bit of confidence going into this course,” said Pedersen of historic Wilshire Country Club.
