Ciganda recounts 'crazy day,' late shuttle

Mexico City’s infamous traffic jams caused problems for contenders in Saturday’s third round of the Lorena Ochoa Invitational.

With four players who were in contention stuck in a shuttle bus that took more than two hours to make the usual 15- to 20-minute commute from the tournament hotel to the golf course, the LPGA pushed back the day’s final three times. By doing so, Suzann Pettersen, Angela Stanford, Minjee Lee and Carlota Ciganda were assured that they would be spared disqualifications for missing tee times.

The LPGA cited Decision 6-3a/1.
