SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, France — Celine Boutier gave the French a round to remember at the Olympic women's golf competition. The 30-year-old from France rolled in seven birdie putts and chipped in for another birdie. It led to a 65 and a three-shot lead over Ashleigh Buhai of South Africa. Boutier is no stranger to Le Golf National. It's a course she has played more than a hundred times. But what helped her the most was the time she was at the course with no clubs. That was over the weekend. She watched the French cheer for Victor Perez and Matthieu Pavon and had an idea of what to expect.
