IS HE DONE --CROMWELL, Conn. -- Suzy Whaley shot a respectable, but ultimately out of contention 5-over 75 on Thursday in the first round of the Greater Hartford Open, winning over the crowds but not the 137 men ahead of her on the leaderboard.
The local club pro, the first woman to qualify for an event on the PGA TOUR since Babe Zaharias in 1945, settled down after a double-bogey on the first hole and recorded her only birdie of the day on No. 18. After her 37-foot putt from the fringe banged in off the pin, she raised her arms triumphantly and slapped hands with her caddie as the gallery roared.
