BOCA RATON, Fla. — Saturday’s 50-degree temperatures were the least of the concerns of the golfers competing in the third round of the Gainbridge LPGA at Boca Rio.
It was the gusty, shifty winds that accompanied the cold front that perplexed Lydia Ko and Danielle Kang, who began the day tied for the lead at 11 under par.
Whether they were on the tee boxes, the fairways or the greens, the wind, which blew as hard as 33 mph, had them backing away from shots, re-thinking their club selections and wondering how hard or how easy to hit their putts.
