Yuko Mitsuka has been involved in a very interesting case. As she was competing in the World Ladies Championship, she was penalized 2 strokes for playing too slowly. This is against the rules in the LPGA. As a result, she then threw a fit on the course, threw her clubs down and walked off the course. This is highly unprofessional and looked down upon so she was fined of a Japanese LPGA-record of two-million-yen according to yahoo! news. After the punishment she decided to take it into her own hands and suspend herself from 11 games!
In my opinion, Yuko was so ashamed, that she suspended herself before the JLPGA could punish her even harsher. Basically, she quit while she was ahead before she could get humiliated even further. People need to realize that professional atheletics is no joke and shouldn't be reckoned with.
