Oh boy. I can tell there was some nasty weather that week, and it shows, those greens took a BEATING. Also, it feels so weird to look at Lydia so serious. She's so much more happy-go-lucky as a pro than she was an amateur! Edit: Wow, I'm amazed how well those greens cleaned up just two days later.

Val Skinner was'nt a fan of our Lydia. But she's not a kid who's ever won an Amatuer at her age. Way to shut up critics Lydia. Kia Kaha!
