LPGA Players Compared To Sheep As Event Turns Wild

Belen Mozo, the third-round leader at the McKayson New Zealand Women's Open, compared LPGA players 'to sheeps', after the inaugural tournament in Auckland turned wild. 

The Spaniard had far more to contend with on Saturday than hanging on to win her first LPGA title, when the players were required to avoid flying signs as gale force winds gusted across Windross Farm Golf Club.

 

Incase you didn’t know why play was suspended yesterday at the @nzwomensopenlpga ????. . . Play has officially resumed and the ladies will now be finishing the rest of their holes ??. #toughconditions #nzwomensopen #lpga #womenwithdrive @belenmozo @brittany1golf @brookehendersongolf

While play was eventually postponed for the day, Mozo was quick to express her dismay about the situation.

https://t.co/hzW2l0jgOV @LPGA is a tour where players DONT have a say or a voice. Like I say we are "like sheeps". ??

Brittany Lincicome was also less than pleased about what was happening.

Incredibly, Brooke Henderson made three birdies in the six holes she completed before play was abandoned.
