Megan Khang goes wire-to-wire at Women's Eastern Amateur

Rye, N.Y. – Brittany Lincicome’s week didn’t exactly start off lucky. She rang the Nasdaq Bell on Tuesday in New York City and the market went down. She then threw out the first pitch at a Mets game in the run-up to the KMPG Women’s PGA Championship, and the home team lost in a no-hitter against the Giants.

“I don’t think I’m ever going to be invited back to do anything fun,” said Linciciome, laughing.
