Taking her deep breaths like Mickey told her to, she rolled in a 20-ft. birdie putt on the fourth hole, canned a 25-ft. putt for another on the seventh, chipped in from 15 ft. for still another on the 14th, and drilled a perfect 3-iron to within 18 in. of the cup to set up a fourth birdie on the 16th. She sank a seven-foot putt on the 17th...
