2017 LPGA Q-School, Stage III

Just for anyone who would like to know, what I said was, based on her amateur record, Annie Park had a possibility of being decent. But I also said it was pretty unlikely, since in general college golfers never amount to anything on the LPGA. Funny how you never remember that part, isn't it? Yet it is the more significant element of what I said.

Round Two is complete.

Phil....good call on Alison Walshe WASHING OUT.

Huh?  Your wording confused me...I wrote this:

Christine Song and Alison Walshe are two of least impressive players I've seen, so I left them off my list, but they do have a way of crawling under the door.

...which is exactly what she is doing at -2, 71-71:


Walshe qualified to get into the 2017 Shop-Rite/Acer...of course, she got wiped out early at +6, 148...BTW, fourteen players bombed out at 148 at the Seaview and ten of them are playing Stage 3 q-school.  Walshe also qualified for the USWO, but was crushed at Bedminster, 80-79.

Which are many.
I was watching SMOKESHOW at the 2012 CN CWO with her housing host...Belen was missing so many 3-6 foot putts for par and birdie.

Phil....good pick of Muni....LMAO....I told you she's a POSER.
Andrea Gaston has no worries with Ree & He returning to beat on same caliber players....eg.....Hannah O at the NCAA's.

GO ROBYNN!!!  ...and what a comeback by Il Hee Lee to make the cut.  She probably has to go crazy low for any chance at the top-20...I just hope she ranks well enough to get into next year's Shop-Rite.  From what I've observed in person and on TV/online, she's one of the coolest players around.

It occurred to me today that the LET and ALPG would struggle less at the KOWA if their better and younger players weren't playing Stage 3 LPGA Q-school at the same time every year.  For instance, I've never seen Rebecca Artis before, but it's clear that she's a helluva lot better than her #459 Rolex Ranking.  I looked up her profile on the LET website...turned 29 last month, played only four times this year on that pathetic tour, but her average was 71.54...two career LET wins.  We'll see if she is a late bloomer who can handle the major leagues in 2018.  Her IG:

If Muni can fly out tonight, she could get an extra day of practice in Dubai, which might be needed since that tournament starts on Wednesday.
