Lydia Ko couldn't help but smile. Her birdie putt on No. 13 on Round 2 of the ANA Inspiration had gone all the way around the cup without dropping.
Perhaps it was karma for hitting a lousy tee shot that skipped down the cart path, but Ko's friend and playing partner Lexi Thompson was completely surprised and shot a hilarious glance the Kiwi's way in reaction.
Ko made par to remain under par on the round, in search of a record-breaking 30th consecutive under-par round on the LPGA Tour.
