Ouch. Just Ouch.

Well, Ai-chan finished the Navistar Classic 27 shots behind Stacy Prammanasudh and 12 or 13 shots outside the cut line (if it does go up to +2 again, a lot of struggling Super Sophs will make it), in probably her worst tournament as a professional. 'Nuff said.*

*That said, there are interesting story lines galore to follow this weekend. Can Prammanasudh snap Lorena Ochoa's 3-tournament winning streak, despite Ochoa's furious charge over her last few holes which kept her only 3 back? Will Christina Kim pass Nicole Castrale (who shot a 30 on the front today)? Can the 6 long-time or recently struggling Super Sophs playing great so far this week--Nirapathpongporn (-7), Bae (-6), Choi (-6), Francella (-5), Lu (-5 with four to play), and Yoo (-3)--stay ahead of their superstar peers Jee Young Lee (-3) and Seon Hwa Lee (-3)? Can Rookie of the Year-to-be Angela Park catch Jin Young Pak, the only rookie ahead of her in the tournament after the first two rounds?
