I thought that Dakota Dowd thing was pretty cool, too ... especially when you consider she was only a couple of shots off the lead after the first round.
Background: Dakota's 13, her mom is terminally ill with cancer, and always wanted to see her daughter play in an LPGA event. Dakota got a sponsor's exemption and played in the tournament.
But what made the McElwain thing the shoo-in winner was the fact that the kid had NEVER PLAYED in a high school game. EVER. It was a once-in-a-lifetime moment, not just for him, but for anyone who got to see it.
