Brilliant Tiffany Joh leads ASI Ladies Scottish Open

LPGA Tour

Tiffany Joh's snuck into a sensational 9-under par 62 to clinch a four-shot lead in the first round of the Aberdeen Standard Investment Ladies Scottish Open at Gullane GC.

-old American worked this week with his short game coach, but he had lost his attention and he turned to the most important thing in his life: catch a wave.

"He started throwing surfing metaphors," she explained. "It was like: who is your favorite surfer? Look at what their eyes are doing. It's something I was trying to do today."

At least twice, his ball approached the hole like a board and looked more like a yacht with a wet sail, reaching her target with perfect speed and infallible accuracy

She had done four teams on the first nine and added two others to start the return trip, but on the 12th, she landed a kind of "A". For the surfer, it's a wave peak that breaks from left to right with a perfect shape. For the golfer, it's a length-of-the-green birdie conversion, moving in the same direction. She drained another birdie from a little closer to the hole on the 13th, this time he arched from right to left.

"I have a very bad memory," she said. "But the first was about 60 feet and then I did the next from about 48 feet."

"I put it astonishingly, it's the only way to describe it today." I did not particularly hit it, but I missed it to the good ones places and I had a hot putter. "
