LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. Ariya Jutanugarn, ranked No. 1 in Rolex Rankings, didnt feel good about all the fairways and greens she missed Friday at the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions, but she had the luxury of having one of the NBAs great sharpshooters alongside her for counsel.She played with Ray Allen on Friday in the pro/celebrity format.Though Jutanugarn hit just seven of 13 fairways and missed five greens, she scrambled to a 4-under-par 67, moving just two shots behind the leader, Brooke Henderson.

It hit it everywhere, Jutanugarn said. I kept missing fairways and greens, but Im at 4 under.It was kind of like Allen putting up 30 points on a night when his shot didnt feel quite right.Jutanugarn likes how the Diamond Resorts format connects LPGA pros with some of the great athletes in other sports. She said she picked Allens brain all day.He taught me a lot of things, Jutanugarn said. He told me about his experiences. He told me a lot.Jutanugarn is seeking to add to the 10 LPGA titles she has won over the last three seasons. She struggled the first time she rose to world No. 1, but she says she is more comfortable with the ranking this time around. She said she was curious how Allen managed his success. So, what did Allen tell her?Without going into specifics, I told her the things she has to deal with are the things we all deal with, Allen said. You have to manage them, and that requires communication with people around you. So, you have to have good people around you. You have to have people around you who will tell you whats real and whats right.Youre going to have those days when things dont go right, but you will have good people who will hold you up.
