Less than a week after a rules violation cost Dustin Johnson his shot at the PGA Championship, Juli Inkster was disqualified from the LPGA Tour’s Safeway Classic on Saturday when a television viewer spotted her breaking a rule. The 50-year-old Hall of Famer was making the turn at Pumpkin Ridge, but the 10th hole was backed up. During the 30-minute wait, she affixed a “doughnut” weight to her 9-iron and took some practice swings to stay loose. Turns out that’s not allowed under rule 14-3. “It had no effect on my game whatsoever, but it is what it is,” Inkster said. “I’m very disappointed.” The Associated Press
