Happy, what's more a challenge for In Gee, driver or putter?

Happy, what's more a challenge for In Gee, driver or putter? Actually, she's good at both. I think she led the KLPGA in putting last year. Right now she's third in driving accuracy after one event on the LPGA, and she is 11th in greens in regulation. If she has a weakness, I think it's her length. On courses where length is a premium she may struggle to keep up. I'm sure she'll run into some putting surfaces she isn't that familiar with this year, as well, so she may have some weak putting events. But she's fundamentally sound in that department, so she should come around eventually. (In Gee gets fan love in Thailand):  |

Great photos. The women sure have to jump through a lot of hoops just to play in a golf tournament.

golfweek.com/news/2016/feb/24/lpga-thailand-inbee-park-injury-so-yeon-ryu/After stressful starts to season, Park and Ryu hope to start anew in Thailand By Beth Ann Nichols Wednesday, February 24, 2016 It has been a stressful start to the LPGA season for Inbee Park. Citing a back injury, she withdrew from the season-opening Pure Silk Bahamas LPGA Classic on Jan. 28 after carding a 7-over 80 in the first round. Then her father-in-law died. Park begins her season anew this week at the Honda LPGA Thailand, an event that she won in 2013. “You realize a lot of things in life when those big things kind of happen,” Park said. “Golf is just not everything in my life, you know. I've learned a lot of things, going through the sad moments and tough moments, and everything happens for a reason. That's what I think.” Park took three weeks off, practicing only “a couple times” before leaving her home in Las Vegas for Thailand. The World No. 2 was joined in the interview room by good friend So Yeon Ryu, who has shopped for a house near Park in Vegas. Ryu said she won’t leave Los Angeles, however, if her younger sister gets into USC. Park and Ryu, two veteran players on the LPGA, headline a strong contingent of South Koreans vying for spots on the International Crown and Olympic teams in 2016. Four players qualify for each team, but it’s a bunched race. An incredible six players from South Korea stand among the top 10 of the Rolex Rankings. Nine are in the top 20. “I think the Korean players are playing crazy this year,” said Park, whose 17 LPGA victories include seven major championships. “Taking everything on the line, and they are bringing a lot of motivation into their games.” Two of the first three winners in 2016 – Hyo Joo Kim and Ha Na Jang – are from South Korea. For her part, Ryu employed Jordan Spieth’s instructor during the offseason. She gave her longtime caddie, Tom Watson, the assignment of finding her a new coach, and his first phone call was to Cameron McCormick. Ryu, who is ranked sixth, flew to Dallas during the first week of January to begin work. McCormick changed Ryu’s backswing to keep her from opening the club face too much. “It feels like I just started to golf again,” Ryu said, “and every day is different, every day is so exciting, sometimes stressful.” Last week, Ryu met K.J. Choi, a South Korean and eight-time winner on the PGA Tour, for the first time at her church and enjoyed a two-hour conversation with him. When she arrived at her course to practice that afternoon, the head pro informed her that Rory McIlroy was onsite, filming for Nike. The head pro wanted a picture of the two pros together because in 2011, Ryu won the U.S. Women’s Open at The Broadmoor and McIlroy won the U.S. Open at Congressional. “I was like a little girl right there,” Ryu said. “I had to wait, like, 30 minutes, 40 minutes, but I was still happy to wait.” Golfweek.com readers: We value your input and welcome your comments, but please be respectful in this forum

Good news of So Yeon being paired with Kerr.
She will probably get TV time.
So we can see how much her swing has changed.
I hope not too much.

Seems like Dumbo and Amy got the wrong memo....or Amy is Dumbo's 'big sister' on tour......they are dressed to attend an afternoon backyard BBQ....not a gala event. |

No pictures of In Gee at the party, she conveniently skipped it.

Looks like Benji is out.....temporary?  ....Craig Castrale on Lexi's bag......I believe Craig was on MJ Hur's bag last year. Benji's back on the bag.....likely got sick or flew in late??.... and Craig stepped in to help Lexi out for a pro-am or a practice rd. No MOOSEing for Lexi....-8 after 16 holes. Charley Hull's new nickname is POTTY MOUTH.....says the 4 letter word then giggles after a shoved approach shot into the 8th green. Meanwhile Stacy is being quite SNaPPY early on ....after waiting to get the hole repaired by Sue Witters...she then misses her 4 footer for par and spears her putter towards the her golf bag...."That's the Spirit" :taunt: ......yikes....Stacy just missed a 2 ft putt for birdie on 10. The crown greens and run offs are giving the gals a bit of issues....nice to see. The greens are rolling really fast...I read somewhere the course had been shut down for play for 2 weeks to prep it for the event. The weather must be really hot and humid...but the gals don't really looked drained and fatigued. Tom Abbott working the graveyard shift at the GC studio....1am - 5am. |

In Gee; 28 putts, 5 out 5 scrambling, that's impressive.

The new 21 years old Lexi delivered a GOAT performance that's mouthwatering; she shot -8 while taking 29 putts. The ball striking is out of this world.
Everybody will play for 2nd place every week if Lexi keeps it up.
