RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. In sweltering desert heat Friday at the ANA Inspiration, Lexi Thompsons putter went stone cold.With one short missed putt after another piled up at days end, Thompson left herself a mountain to climb this weekend.If shes going to stir the hearts of all the folks who want to see her win after last years painful loss, shes going to have to mount an epic comeback.With an even-par 72, Thompson is eight shots back.I hit it really well today, Thompson said. I just struggled on the greens. I missed a good amount of putts, shorter putts too.Thompsons ball striking set up a day that could have been something special, but she missed five putts of 4 feet or less.She three-putted from 4 feet at the 12th green.She took a staggering 19 putts on the front nine.Just felt a little uncomfortable today on the greens, Thompson said.

A day after electrifying the galleries here with a 68, Thompson flirted with a missed cut. She rallied coming home, though, making birdie at three of the final four holes.I would just say it didn't feel as comfortable lining up, Thompson said. I just missed a few left, and that was my pretty consistent miss today. So, I'm going to work on it, figure it out, and be good to go by this time Saturday.Theres hope in how the Dinah Shore Course is giving up some low numbers. Sung Hyun Park (64) and Pernilla Lindberg (67) both broke the championships 36-hole scoring record getting to 12-under 132, a shot better than the mark Lorena Ochoa set in 2006.Putting was the Achilles' heel of Thompsons game before she dramatically turned it around last year, which helped lead to her winning the LPGAs Vare Trophy for low scoring average. She can go low, if she can get that putter hot again.I'm going to get a little practice in, and hopefully get it by the weekend, Thompson said
Lexi puts her nightshirt back on. She is careful when it comes to her wings as she slides them back through the slits in the back of the nightshirt. She turns back around and notices that George had reopened his eyes and was looking at her. She hadn't notice before that his eyes were brown. The woman that had been talking to her, her eyes

Lexi Thompson's wild day somehow ended up with her poised to make a run at her 11th LPGA title. She looked as if she were playing herself out of the ShopRite Classic on her second nine on Saturday. She double bogeyed No. 1, her 10th hole, with her new claw-style putting stroke failing her in a four putt, which included three-putting from 2 feet.

She lies down in the cool grass and shares what's on her heart. Sometimes she falls asleep. Kang usually takes a noon flight back home to Vegas and heads out to practice. Before last year's KPMG Women's PGA Championship, Kang told her father on a rainy day in Glendale that she'd figured it out.

LEXI THOMPSON: I would say I mainly worked a lot on short game. I chipped and putted for at least two to three hours a day, just mainly trying to improve that to where I didn't put so much pressure on my ball striking and knowing I have to hit greens. That way, if I do miss greens, I can fall back on my short game.
