Carlota Ciganda DQ'd at Amundi Evian after refusing slow-play penalty

Carlota Ciganda was disqualified after the second round of the Amundi Evian Championship because she would not accept a slow-play penalty.

Ciganda signed for a 1-over 72 on Friday, without the two-shot penalty. Thus, she signed an incorrect scorecard and was DQ’d.

The group of Ciganda, Anna Nordqvist and Celine Herbin began their second round on the 10th hole at Evian Resort Club. At the seventh, their 16th, they were told that they were out of position. One hole later, they were put on the clock. When an official deemed that Ciganda took too long on the ninth hole, her last of the day, she was docked two shots.
