www.golfchannel.com/news/golf-central-blog/ko-market-new-caddie-againHmmmmm...so Tina reads the posts from the resident expert in the Lotte thread about Matthews and Tmac, etc...and sure enough...Matthews unfortunately gets canned...coincidence.....I think not.....I guess the Dragon Lady fired Gary soon after the 4th rd to avoid paying his airfare back to the mainland.....lol.
Korean woman are to be FEARED....I'm warning everyone now. And it's not just Lydia...look at all the loops Ariya, Ha Na, etc have cycled through in the last year. In Portland in 2013...a loop told me a mother was nickel and dime'ing a loop. Let's face it....the parents and LPGA pros take advantage of the loops knowing they'll whatever they dish out at them. Seriously.....how many here would want a career where there is virtually no stability in employment?....I suspect I won't see any member here answer...YES. I really wish the reporters of IGC would speak the truth....they know it's not Lydia firing the caddies...it's all about Tina.......lol.

On Instagram, Lydia posted that she now has 100,000 followers. I don't say mean things to players on social media. Otherwise, I would have replied, "Yes and they all used to caddie for you."

Maybe Tina hires Larry the Loop. I am waiting for the punchline. You think there is a chance the Wunderkind would hire a geezer like Larry, who ratted out Korean golfers for cheating, and continues to write a blog to spill the beans of the tour ? A guy like him will never get recycled back to the "big time" LPGA.

In Portland in 2013...a loop told me a mother was nickel and dime'ing a loop. In 2013 the Wunderkind was still an amateur. I don't know how much Gil Hong Ko was scamming out of New Zealand each year, but I would imagine the Lydia camp was running on a tighter budget back then. As much as Gil Kong put her daughter through golf hell, at least he didn't make her turn pro after her Canadian Open victory. It doesn't matter whether LPGA grant her membership or not. She could have run her own show on sponsor invites and appearance fee alone.

Once anyone figures out who the pro is....... you'll understand why the mother is controlling the situation vs. a father...and no it's not Bo....in camp Wie...it's all about BJ.

We'll soon find out if Tina reads this blog and takes the advise from the wise old resident expert. IMO....I think Tina should find a female loop....preferably a younger gal who has played competitive golf....Megan Francella or the like. It must be difficult to find chemistry from a 40+ guy cleaning clubs and raking bunkers and a young female golfer in their teens or early 20's. Bam Bam had 2 wins in 2011 when AJ Eathorne was on her bag....I'm sure Bam likes Missy on her bag and they talk about boys, nail and hair salons...and maybe Missy likes fishing talk too. If any have watched Xi Yu Lin...I think Mardi is a great loop for her and acts as a mother hen for Janet while on tour....I LUV Mardi...a butt handing out of her mouth while looking and her yardage book giving Xi Li some numbers. I think the LOVELY HYP really enjoyed her time when Kylie was looping for her. If Tina can't find a gal...she should try to a find a younger guy who has a bit of goofiness....maybe in his late 20'....an ex mini tour pro? I think a guy like Jesus Mozo (on Su Oh's bag) would be a candidate for Lydia's bag. Although he's in the 40+ category....ya gotta believe Tmac should be a guy Tina should steal...but I'm not sure there would be chemistry....but he's got the long time experience looping for Mannika...ultimately results are what counts for Tina. When Lexi showed up with some old guy on her bag at the early part of this year...you could see there was no chemistry and they ended up departing ways....same goes for Gary Matthews....you could see there wasn't much chemistry. I think the ex Big Break guy who is on Wie bag is ideal for Michelle....seems to be some chemistry there...he used to loop for Ryann. Duncan just seemed a bit an out of touch...I'm not surprised Tutta dumped him. I say Ko goes through 2-3 additional loops this year....The Dragon Lady is a hard one to please. I remember the interview with Brian Alexander and Rod Black during the 2015 CP CWO. The club suggested and recommended Brian....when Tina saw Brian she questioned whether he could carry the bag...a stand bag...not a staff bag....LMAO. So here's Tina complaining about a guy who has VOLUNTEERED to loop for a week.....whining about something that is FREE....LOL. Hello Tina...the guy knows VCC like the back of his hand....a past BC Senior Am champ and still carries a +0.5 cap. As I've said before...Korean women scare me.

"You would absolutely think twice, I know 2 caddies personally that turned down a job with one of the young gun Korean players over the last 2 weeks. Will she find a good caddie, sure, will it last, not while her mother is running the shots and firing Loopers if her daughter has a bad week. This player has made over 1 mil the least 2 seasons and is a really nice girl and experienced caddies won't touch it."
******************************************************************** FAKE news?....lol I saw the above post on WRX and then 4waymiss replied with Minjee.
The only two Koreans that fit the above criteria are Minjee and Ha Na....the Hulk's been playing in Asia recently with what seems to be locals/maybe friends on her bag.
But I'm thinking Ha Na travels with her dad and I think someone posted that Minjee travels with her mom.
I think it's Minjee too.
So is Minjee's mom related to Tina?...lol.
FWIW...ingeeisgod posted in the WRX thread too....that pink shirt Millennial needs to return here...he's so funny. OK....fess up...who got into a fight with him and caused him too quit for the 3rd time?

It must be difficult to find chemistry from a 40+ guy cleaning clubs and raking bunkers and a young female golfer in their teens or early 20's. Lydia had that funny line: "All the men I meet are either 10 or 40." IF Lydia is looking for an experienced professional caddie in his 20s, she should check the planet Krypton...because here on planet Earth, no such person exists. Just walk around an LPGA event during pro-am day and you'll see a bunch weather-beaten dudes. One possible exception comes to mind, but I don't know his name. Meena Lee had this tall thin blond guy on her bag at the 2015 KPMG...I know I've seen him before, but with whom and where, I don't remember. Maybe Lydia should call the guy who was too short to loop for Dina A. Youth is not everything. At the 2009 US Girls Junior, Kim Kim and Kyle Roig discussed the shortcomings of their caddies from the medal qualifying rounds. K.K. said, "He said he was thirteen, but he looked ten. He lost my rain gloves."

As I said before....I think Lydia should find an ex LPGA pro or a retired ex competitive female pro to loop for her...then they can do all the silly girl talk and everything....look at how well Kylie gel'd with the LOVELY HYP....and the ROCKET has since cycled through many male loops....if the Smiling Buddha was a young man...I'm sure HYP would keep him on the bag forever. ...Luv The Rocket!! If IMG can't locate a good female loop...then they really are a bunch of LOSER's. If Ko has a female on her bag next week...you know Tina reads this forum. Tina should hire Jesus Mozo....young guy and a pretty good personality....ya ya ya...he looped for Cheatin Chella for a week...I think it was the 2015 CP CWO.....but then got canned because Chella's a mental midget and had to go back to daddy. There are young male loops....look at the young boy MJ has on her bag....didn't she find him in Portland. Benji was a young guy who seemed to gel with Lexi....we don't know if Benji was fired or quit. I spoke with a guy in his 20's at Sahalee....he was on Marina Alex's bag and charting the course....he is a Canuck from Ingersoll, ON and played on the Cdn tour. FYI...Big Breaker, Julien Trudeau was looping in Sahalee...I chatted with him...it was an off week and Delaet wasn't playing. I also saw Kathleen Ekey at Sahalee and wondered why she was there and then figured out at the end of the day she was dating a loop. Both were shocked anyone knew them. There's plenty of young competent loops out there...ya just gotta find them. Let's face it....Team Ko need not worry about a young guy trying to sleep with Lydia...they all know Tina would destroy them if there was any hanky panky. It was so obvious early on there was ZERO chemistry with Matthews and Ko....he should have been gone before heading out on the Asia swing. Although Tmac would be a great loop....I don't think he wants to be friends with Ko....and talk fruit, muffins and boys. Hmmm...maybe Paul Godfrey (on Tiff or Xtina's bag? ? since Ha Na dumped him)...he must be pretty goofy and a good chat if he's married to J. Park.

Why doesn't Lydia get her sister to tote her bag? It works for the McKenzies and the real Dumbo. Remember the article that said Austin Johnson is the worst caddie on the PGA Tour? That must be why DJ is ranked no. 1.

That must be why DJ is ranked no. 1. Brittany Henderson is somewhat a REAL golfer, I would assume the REAL Dumbo's brother is a competent golfer who knows the game, Luke Lang use to play collegiate golf, etc Sura...just like mom....know jacksh*t about golf...I could just see Sura handing Lydia a 6 iron on a 130 yd shot and Lydia air mailing the ball 30 yds over the green and into a hazard and then Sura saying....."6 or 9, what's the difference". I'm sure Sura thinks Poa Annua is some kind of Hawaiian dish, Kentucky Bluegrass some name for a race horse and Bermuda a small island in the Atlantic. But Sura is cute, so we would see her more on TV...which isn't a bad thing. Do you guys remember Tina looping for Lydia at the 2012 Women's Am and tilting Lydia's head when she was lining up a putt...it was HILARIOUS. Jaye Marie was likely laughing so hard she lost concentration and lost.
