In Kyung is a real pro's pro. I was impressed with the way she handled the final round. Guess she is a seasoned veteran by now. 2017 is the year of the veteran so far, very different from 2016.

Ironclad guarantee that they will come up with some sort of excuse to put Creamer and Wie on the team. I'm not a big Michelle Wie fan, but at this point she has earned a place on the team - no need for "cover" or "some sort of excuse" as she has played better than anyone except Thompson and Kerr. Lots of points available in the 3 upcoming majors for anybody to really make a move. I guess it depends on how you define "playing better". For match play, I'd want a player that has a high percentage of birdies. Michelle is currently the 15th ranked American. Mo, Nelly, Kim Kaufman, Lizette, Jessica, Austin, Jennifer Song, and a handful of others are ranked higher. She's the 12th ranked American for rounds in the 60's, behind players like Marina Alex. If I'm the captain, I want players who are capable of going low. Michelle's latest swing changes are geared toward ho-hum consistency.

Tru dat...it's all about the TV. Stanford, Austin, Mo, Lizette & Jenn Song are BORING. Juli, Whan, Jay Burton, Kevin Hopkins and the other IMG greasers will ensure Wie, Creamer & GIMMEE get on the team......guarantee there'll be a Charley vs. Creamer and Tutta vs. GIMMEE single matches on Sunday. OLE OLE!!

Phil Considering you attend for FREE and the flea bag motels are only $30/night...why do you never stay for the weekends? So is MHL gonna get you a pass for the USWO? They seriously jack up the rates for Friday & Saturday night stays, which is why I did a Tuesday thru Friday trip. However, I did a Wednesday thru Saturday trip in 2015...stayed at a place on Rte 9 north of the course and averaged about $45/night. I suppose it's not a huge difference to try that schedule again for next year. One benefit of doing Wednesday thru Saturday is that I'll know all the pro-am and tournament tee times on Tuesday night and can plan accordingly. For instance, Paige (Woe is me) Spirinac did at least one pro-am at the Seaview Pines course, but I didn't know since I am old-school (no computer or smart phone with me). No, I did not ask MHL for passes or any other freebies...more on her later. Her daddy wasn't there, which really surprised me...never saw her "alone" before at a tournament. I wanted to chat with him...he is not young, hope he his is okay. I had an idea a while back to have some MHL buttons made...now is this time as the USWO is coming up soon. The Mo Martin people were there with their GO MO buttons, but I want mine to have MHL's picture. BTW, do you know who is on Kim Kaufman's bag these days? It's a tall woman, maybe a 6-footer, definitely middle-aged (or weathered from the sun). FYI...I "maneuvered" myself behind two players standing in Shop-Rite's express check-out line last week...more on that later (but nothing special, unfortunately).

Phil...so when are you gonna post your daily FULL REPORTS including your rd at the goat track. And don't hide anything like a pink shirt millennial.....go FULL BORE and tell all the DETAILS AND DRAMA you observed. No one knows or cares who you are.
Don't do the MHL button....buy her something...like some Korean snacks or candy or something creative. Oh ya...and don't forget to ask MHL for a Volvik hat.
I'm sure people will be dumping USWO on Craigslist..especially the practice rd tix. Or there might be people scalping tix in the shuttle lot or admission gate...don't pay full price at the ticket booth until as a last resort

When will the numerous frauds on the jump page be replaced by women who actually win tournaments? I thought you meant Brooke Henderson on every LPGA tournament flash page. As she drop lower 0n the Rolex Ranking. For a golfer ranked 14 or 15 she get a lot of exposure and is put in a lot of featured groups. However I ran into her at the ANA and found that she is a really nice person

On the road to Michigan, but still love to give a big congratulation to In Kyung. She proved all the doubters wrong. As I posted earlier, even though she don't play to many tournaments anymore. She plays pretty good in the ones she do play. So the focus about how many tournaments she misses can be put to rest. Kudos to Sung Hyun for a great finishing round. I think you said you're going to the Meijer Classic. Have you been to the Meijer Sculpture Gardens in Grand Rapids? I highly recommend! No I haven't been there even though I grew up in Muskegon. AS soon as I graduated high school I went to San Francisco State. We only go back there to visit my brother's family . If we have time we will try to check it out.

I was waiting until I could grab a screenshot of Ariya at #1 before blogging about the first Thai world golf #1.
...yeah...
So be it if that's how the math worked out. Right now if I needed someone to bet the house on it would be So Yeon or Lexi, anyway. They are the best at the moment to me.
But it stinks that a lot of press and sponsors in Thailand had prepared celebrations for nothing. Gotta crunch those numbers better in the future.

Moriya's doing really well for herself. She nabs her 4th top ten. She's missed only one cut and has finished outside the top 20 only twice. She's ranked no. 2 in birdies behind her sister. The two of them have almost 400 birdies between them.
