Welcome back to the Monday Finish, where the man in the seat in front of me just passed gas and reclined his seat simultaneously. An impressive feat, to be sure, though tough on my laptop and my morale. But nothing can get me down for long — I’m headed for Dublin! And then north from there. It’s Open Championship week. But first, to the news…
Bouncing back, and back, and back.
What moment do you think best explains Grace Kim’s outrageous major comeback on Sunday at the Evian?
She admitted she first thought she was out of it when she made double bogey at No. 12. But she also flipped a switch.
“I said to myself and to my caddie, ‘I’ve got nothing else to lose,'” Kim said.
Then she birdied 15. And 16. She came to No. 18 two shots behind leader Jeeno Thitikul — then nearly holed her approach into the par-5 finisher, ultimately tapping in for a tying eagle.
