I can't get past the capris. Brooke is a good looking young woman, and should be able to wear a variety of styles. However, she's quickly fallen into a fashion funk. Heck, I'd be happy if she followed Lexi's lead. At least Lexi is willing to mix it up. 'Could be worse I guess. She could be following the Stacy Lewis school of fashion. Let's face it....80% of the gals are tomboy/jocks who have zero fashion sense.....and 90% of those gals don't care and only want to be noted to allow their sticks do the talking. Many of the gals are one dimensional....look at Charley Hull...always wears short shorts and tight shirts that she's always tugging on.....I can go on and on with some many one dimensional dressers. Few can mix it up with shorts, skorts and pants in a well coordinated manner. Look at how many pros who have no clue how to dress for the gala dinners....there are extremes...... from some who wear t-shirts to some who go to the extreme and look like $2 hookers. Of the top of my head...3 pros come to mind who dress well inside the ropes and dress classic for the gala/sponsor dinners...Nicole Castrale, Ai-Chan and SYR. Whan should hold a summit and invite Sharon, SKY and Smile Candy and role models and guest note speakers and have sponsors like Louis Castel, Hazzy, MU Sports, Le Coq Sports, Pearly Gates, Fila, Descente.

When I watched IGC at Nabisco, her putting and chipping was superb. I wonder how it could have gone so wrong? My only criticism with her game was, how can someone who is so big, hit such average distance drives? It was like watching Nick Faldo all over again. CordeValle will likely be all about putting. stanutley.com/contact/ She seemed to keep up with Ha Na at Sahalee and frequently outdrove her. And her ball flight was literally twice as high. My guess is that, with her high ball flight, she doesn't get a lot of roll, and on a course like the ANA is played on, lower hitting players get a ton of roll from the dry fairways?

Lol. Count me in. I'm looking for an excuse to quit my day job. Gawd, LPGA "fashion" is awful, especially in the cold/wet. Mind you, it's not as bad as the LET. I've spent hours pouring over LET photos, and they're simply dreadful. Let's start by banning baggy shorts and knee-length shorts. You either wear a nice skort, preferably with pleats, or you wear proper shorts or tailored slacks. Minjee knows how to wear pants when she's not in a nice skort. I like the design of Lydia's outfit, but in my opinion the color doesn't work with her skin coloring. It makes her fade into the background. A brighter, less pastel shade of blue or red would look more spiffy on her I think.

While it would be wonderful to think that the LPGA players could be dressing like the KLPGA fashionistas, I'd be more than happy if they didn't look like slobs out there. I don't think it takes a lot of fashion sense to put together a decent looking outfit. Take Minjee, Alison, or Cheyenne. They're not trendsetters, but they each have a classic athletic look. All it takes is a little color coordination, a skort, or some proper fitting pants.

I guess I was so impressed by the fact that she wore something stylish that I didn't particularly pay attention to the colors. Yeah, blue, red, or yellow would work.

Has anybody seen TV Rating numbers for the KPMG? www.sportsmediawatch.com/2016/06/womens-pga-ratings-nbc-overnights-formula-one-canada-gp-nbcsn-copa-america-fox/Final round coverage of the Women’s PGA Championship earned a 0.7 overnight rating on NBC Sunday afternoon, up a tick from last year (0.6) and tied as the highest LPGA overnight in nearly two years, since the 2014 U.S. Women’s Open (1.7). Golf Channel earned a 0.5 for its coverage later in the night. On Saturday, third round action had a 0.5 overnight on NBC — down a tick from last year (0.6). (NBC Sports)

I also found data that indicated that the big leap in ratings came between the 2014 and 2015 editions of the event. Probably the KPMG branding had a lot to do with it.
The 2015 US Women's Open had relatively low ratings, largely because of the switch to Fox based on the analysis I read.

It's just that 2014 had triple the normal, thanks to my future wife.

What do you think about Brooke's super saturated pastel colors. And everything is one color, the top and bottom. Looks like she was dressed by LEGO. Agreed. Colors were awful Sunday. Maybe spend a little of that KMPG money and go shopping with Arg.
