Brittany Altomare introduced herself to the world in the “craziest conditions” she has ever encounted.

In heavy wind, with heavy rain turning to hale, she showed just how tough those players from Massachussets can be as she battled to try to win the Evian Championship in brutal weather last year.

Yeah, she lost the sudden death playoff with Anna Nordqvist, but Altomare won a lot of respect in her first run into contention in a major.

“I was really proud of myself for being able to handle it the way I did,” Altomare said.
