    Re: The LPGA Thread

    Not sure I have ever seen anything like that. Jutanugarn needed a 7 on the last hole, and made an 8.

    All she needed to do is lay up. Why go for the green in 2, with a two stroke lead on the final hole? Just hit the green in 3, even if you 3 putt you still win. How upsetting.

    Her caddy should be fired.

    Final results:

    1 Inbee Park -12 F
    2 Ariya Jutanugarn -11 F
    3 Yani Tseng -10 F
    3 So Yeon Ryu -10 F
    3 Stacy Lewis -10 F
    3 Beatriz Recari -10 F
    7 Na Yeon Choi -9 F
    8 Shanshan Feng -8 F
    8 Lizette Salas -8 F
    10 In-Kyung Kim -7 F
    10 Gerina Piller -7 F
    12 Lexi Thompson -6 F
    12 Amy Yang -6 F
    14 a-Lydia Ko -5 F
    14 Jessica Korda -5 F
    14 Nicole Castrale -5 F
    14 Jiyai Shin -5 F
    14 Catriona Matthew -5 F

      Re: The LPGA Thread

      Before I get to this week's topic, let me say that if you missed this past weekend's tournament, you missed one of the strangest finishes I have ever seen. I don't think that I have ever seen a player on the final hole needing a six to win, taking an eight. The fact that it happened to a 17 year old, certainly made it harder to watch. Last year when I.K. Kim missed that 12-18 inch putt to blow the Kraft Nabisco, that terrible feeling we had watching her bury her face in her caddy chest won't be forgotten for a long time. I didn't think we would have to see something that heart wrenching again so soon. Seeing Moriya wiping the tears from her younger sisters eyes by the 18th green, is another picture that will not be forgotten for some time. I hope she can shake this off, and it will not cause any long term career problems.

      The LPGA Tour moves to Singapore this week, for the playing of the HSBC Women's Championship. The tour will then come home to the United States, after a one week break.

      This will be tournament # 3 of 28 this year.

      Just like last week's tournament, in spite of the limited field (just 63 players), it will be one of the strongest fields of the year. Fifty-six of the top 60 on the LPGA Priority List, and 18 of the top 20 ladies on this week's Rolex Rankings will be teeing it up. My strength of field rating is 80.0%.

      Here are the key details:

              Stats & Facts - Volume 12



              Let me start off my congratulating Stacy Lewis for winning the HSBC Women's Champions. Stacy, the defending LPGA Player of the Year, came out on top with a one stroke victory over NaYeon Choi. Paula Creamer finished two strokes back. See the Constructivist's review for the full details.

              The LPGA will now take a one week break while it makes its way to the United States for the playing of the RR Donnelley Founders Cup. This is a good time to look at some statistics and notes covering the the first three tournaments of the year:

                Many of you have been reading my LPGA blogs over at Mostly Harmless for quite sometime.
                I would like to inform everyone that I have started my own LPGA Website.
                It is called Tony's LPGA Report. It has a very new look.
                It also has a link where you can follow all the LPGA scores live.

                This is the new link to the site:



                If you follow the LPGA, (or KLPGA, JLPGA) it would be appreciated if you would visit my site.
                If you have any suggestions let me know.
                If you like it, remember to bookmark it for future use.

                        Natalie Gulbis has withdrawn from this week's RR Donnelly LPGA Founders Cup tournament as she recovers from Malaria.

                        The LPGA and Gulbis' management firm, announced that Gulbis became ill while playing in Singapore at the beginning of the month.

                            Stacy Lewis New #1 golfer in the world:

                            A year ago at this time Yani Tseng's lead as the world's #1 player was so large, it appeared it would be a number of years before anyone could possibly catch her. No one could possibly have predicted she would lose it this quickly. Not that Yani didn't have a great run. She did spend 109 weeks at the top, but her inability to find the winner's circle while Stacy has won 6 more times, has led to an unlikely turnaround.

                                After one of the most thrilling finishes that resulted in Stacy Lewis taking over the top spot in the official Rolex Rankings, it is already time to turn the page and look at this week's tournament.
                                The tour moves to the state of California for the playing of the Kia Classic. Most players will not only be trying to win the first place prize, but will be trying to get their game in shape for the first major championship which is next on the schedule.
                                This will be tournament #5 of 28 to be played this year.
