KPMG Woman's PGA. The last three years they have picked such fantastic courses for the championship.

BJ Wie is a GONG SHOW. Binoculars, yardage book, carpenter's level, course charts....LMAO....I 1st saw this crap in Portland in 2010...he had topography maps of Pumpkin Ridge. I chatted with my fair share of LPGA parents throughout the year...never seen any carry that CRAP. If only Michelle had different parents...ya really wonder what might have been. With nice tight shots of BJ with all the crap he carries and Bo Wie always so serious, NBC put the parents on blast in yesterday's telecast in an almost passive aggresive way. Has Bo Wie ever smiled? Ever? |

Round 3 A mixture of good and bad today. On the plus side, there are a lot of Koreans on this leaderboard who still have a chance to win Chella Choi, Danielle, Amy and Sei Young are all Sisters who have the talent to win Majors but haven't done it yet. Amy in particular is very overdue, but she is four back and faces a tall order to pull it off tomorrow. Chella and Danielle are tied for the lead, but neither has really been that convincing in a Major before. It would feel weird to see one of them get the Major victory before Yang, but is certainly possible. Go Sisters. Hwaiting!  Happy Fan, I'm curious how you determine which players are "Sisters". I think in the past you haven't included players like Michelle and Lydia, yet you list American Danielle Kang as a Sister. (Not an issue-just wondering). |

Paralysis by analysis. Just PLAY! |

Nice HIT PIECE on Chella Choi by GC Mell. Mell has actually been consistent, along w/ Brandel Chamble,e he's been one of the few GC employees that has been a pain in Lexi's butt for cheating. Chella comes off better than Lexi here tho, she actually admits she needs to be more careful. It's still in VERY POOR TASTE to ask Chella about this on the eve of trying to win her first major. Truly disguising IMO but I'm not a "journalist" so I don't know about drumming up clicks, I mean doing quality, ethical reporting. www.golfchannel.com/news/golf-central-blog/choi-poised-major-sunday-scrutiny-after-rules-controversy |

The entire 10 minute press conference is up on lpga.com and I don't believe it was Mell who asked the question, but I may be wrong about that since the questioners were off camera. Chella did most of the press conference in English, but she gave this response in (interpretated) Korean...I'm sure she wanted to answer it carefully. I was impressed by her answer about learning to be a role model from the experience. I gained a lot of respect for her and wouldn't mind seeing her win today. |

Mell is fine but womens' golf could use a few more ppl in golf media giving their take on things. |

I am looking at a top 5 full of Sisters...and Brooke...aw crap, I can almost sense how this is going to turn out.
Nothing against Brooke, I like her...but pulling for Danielle or Chella 100%.

Someone mentioned on WRX that Nicole Castrale is engaged...she dumped Craig? Please advise...thanks. Who is she engaged to? I think they split several years ago. There was mention on her Instagram of a 'stressful time' that she 'would get thru somehow' (or some words like that), and haven't spotted a wedding ring for awhile. |
