Who to Watch: LPGA 2012

AUTHOR: | IN: LPGA | COMMENTS: Comments Off

There wasn’t a lot of suspense on the LPGA for 2011. You could sum up the season with two words…Yani Tseng. Tseng seemingly kept us all at bay as she dominated the year. She did stumble a time or two…but bounced back with some good performances. The upcoming season will bring a young face, a possibly renewed confidence, and maybe even a “old” name showing new form. Well, as we look to 2012, here’s a list of players that I will be watching.

Weekend Wrap-Up

AUTHOR: | IN: Champions Tour, LPGA, PGA | COMMENTS: Comments Off

This weekend was filled with firsts and a frank… PGA: Frys.com Open I’m sure you’ve all heard about Tiger Woods having a hotdog launched (somewhat) at him by a spectator during his final round. That was not the order of business during the last round of the Frys.com Open. A first time winner was in the works… Briny Baird and Bryce Molder headed to a playoff after each finished their 72 holes with matching scores of 267, 17-under-par. Molder fired a 64 while Baird carded a 67. The playoff? It only went six holes and both had opportunities, but Molder [...]

And We Wait

AUTHOR: | IN: LPGA | COMMENTS: Comments Off

Today Lexi Thompson formally petitioned the LPGA and its commish Michael Whan to waive the age requirement in order to gain privileges on the LPGA Tour. I have already voiced how I feel Thompson should be granted such status. It does come with a little bit of reservation. Just a little. While Whan is fully aware of the impact granting Thompson full status will have on ladies golf, he must be leary of that dreaded burnout factor. If he were to refuse Thompson’s request, this may be a part or all of his reasoning. And that honestly must be taken [...]

Thompson Looking for History

AUTHOR: | IN: LPGA | COMMENTS: Comments Off

She’s only 16, yet Lexi Thompson is looking to pull off a feat for the books: youngest to win an LPGA event. And she is well on her way. Maybe the remarkable part of all of this is that Thompson is doing it in a four-round tournament. The Navistar LPGA Classic is not a major, but it is constructed as such in length. And this is just the beginning. If Thompson hasn’t turned the heads of doubters after her first three rounds, she will never until she wins a tournament. In a field chock full of ranked players, she’s leaving [...]
