MOBILE, Alabama -- Jennifer Johnson got a hug and congratulations from the defending Mobile Bay LPGA Classic champion before it even sunk in Sunday that she had won her first tour title.
"It was fun there at the end, because Jennifer was making putts and I don't think she realized what she was doing," said Stacy Lewis, her playing partner. "I told her when I hugged her, 'I think you just won yourself a golf tournament.' And she's kind of like, 'What?' It was really cute."
Johnson's game was better than cute.
