Putt for Dough

The 2008 U.S. Women's Open was the first tournament as a professional for 23-year-old Stacy Lewis, a collegiate golf powerhouse at the University of Arkansas who turned pro following a 5-0-0 performance in the 2008 Curtis Cup. And in Saturday's third round, Lewis' putter was on fire. She was making putts from everywhere, and it propelled her into the third-round lead.

The fourth round wasn't so much fun for Lewis, because the putts weren't falling on Sunday. She wasn't making bad putts, she just couldn't find the hole. Lewis wound up shooting 78 on Sunday and falling back to 4-under, tied for third place.
