2016 Coates Golf Championship Presented by R+L Carriers

In Gee stays in the kitchen, because she can stand the heat.

Agreed.

Although, there are exceptions for players who are challenged in their putting like Lexi.  Lexi can make a lot of birdies on par 5's, but may never dominate the game.

Considering their length....I've never thought Lexi or Korda's up and down conversions for birdies all that great....too bad the LPGA doesn't have the stats of the PGA tour.

I don't understand why the players stay with a host family. I'd rather stay a Motel 6 than have to make small talk with a bunch of people I don't know.

You're joking right?!  Hell, I get better than that (a sausage sandwich & beer) WATCHING her play a Shop-Rite pro-am!  I assume/hope the gentleman received a daily fee for lugging that bag...after all, she stayed in his house for nuthin'.

Do you honestly believe a member at a private club would loop expecting to get paid?...he would be laughed at by the membership.....I think they likely wouldn't expect payment even if the pro won.....but I've gotta believe the pro would somehow figure out some way to reciprocate for a win.

Heck...people pay big bucks to charities to loop for the pros on a pro-am day.

Let's face it....I don't believe MHL or dad opened up their wallet to hand you a beer or sandwich.

The membership at VCC in 2012 were making fun of Brian Alexander on Ko's bag if he would make it after 6 holes and if Lydia was gonna buy him a dog and Coke after 9...even though Lydia had no signing privileges. 

I like attending events at private tracks because the members are really good to obtain info....especially the ones who are providing housing....it's nit too hard to figure out these members in the galleries.

I put my name in to volunteer to loop for a pro in 2011 for the Cdn Women's tour in Squamish.....they assigned me a pro and she was glad I was familiar with the course....we only exchanged emails.
The day before play...she told me she thought she could handle the course on her own.....likely she wanted to save the $40 caddy fee...and that caddy fee wasn't paid to the volunteer...it was paid to Golf Canada....likely an adm fee.

Sydnee Michaels was on the list who wanted a vol loop....but I didn't know the lady on the caddy committee and to ask her for Sydnee's bag would have been too fanboy'ish.....at the end....Sydnee was a N/S.

These events were great to watch many Big Break gals.

There are similarities between the two; Annika won 1995 USWO as her first LPGA win at age 24, and In Gee won 2015 as her first LPGA win at age 20.  Annika defended her titlein 1996, we don't know what In Gee will do this year.

Annika won 69 LPGA titles between 1995 and 2006, an average of more than 6 tournaments per year.  That's a high bar if there is one.
