2021 Dow Great Lakes Invitational Team event

Recommended Posts

Thought I'd start this one early and have a bit of fun with it.

I saw something on another site....someone posted:

"list the one player they didn't want to play with"

And another member listed some funny pairing with nicknames....lol.

 

I've added to the list.....let's see how many members here understand the drama in these pairings....I'm guessing only a few members 'will get it"....I think only 18majors and Argonne "will get" all the below pairings.....lol.

 

Please feel free to add to the list:

Shanshan & Stacy

Lucy Li & Stacy

Mi Hyang Lee & Stacy

Suzann Pettersen & Alison Lee

In Gee Chun & Ha Na Jang

Laura Davies & Cristie Kerr

Nomura & Cristie Kerr

Every LPGA pro & Cristie Kerr

Aza Munoz & Pressel

Annika & Wie

Danielle Amacapanne & Wie

Ryann O'Toole & Angela Stanford

Lexi & So Yeon Ryu

Nelly & Lizette Salas

Fassi & Uehara

Brittany Lincicome & Christina Kim

I feel like these partnerships would quickly turn into a backyard brawl. When do tickets go on sale 😂

I’m only missing 2:  Brittany Lincicome/Christina Kim and Angela Stanford/Ryann O’Toole.  ???

Kudos you got all but 2.

I'm surprised you and others haven't added to my list...there must be others I'm unfamiliar or have forgotten through the years.

 

Some older ones might include:

Annika vs. Pat Bradley

All the Korean LPGA pros vs, Jan Stephenson

Jan is the sole reason why I became a LPGA fanboy decades ago.

 

1) Years ago....Bam Bam Tweeted or Instagram???....that she wasn't enjoying an Asian swing...likely due to poor play.

Xtina then chimed in (as per usual...an ATTENTION seeker)...saying she only wished she was playing in Asia....(only top money earners qualify for invites for the Asia swing)

I think Bam Bam then replied that if Xtina played better she'd be in Asia??

Then a back and forth cyber space CAT FIGHT began....lol

 

Another one could be Masson and Xtina.

I believe it was the Solheim in Colorado.

Xtina wasn't on the team...I believe she was working for Sky Sports.

 

Xtina went on social media and posted something directed to Masson saying something like:

"Keep it classy"

There was no back and forth.

I suspect Sunday night...Xtina was out cruising looking for some fun and something to do and maybe walked by the Euro War Room and heard all the partying and peeked and step in...only to have Masson say a few choice word to Xtina to get lost???

 

Twitter often leads to no good.

 

2) In Portland in 2013...I was chatting with someone close to Ryann....they said that Angela was not happy about Ryann's selection as a 2011 captain's pick by Rosie.

 

IMO...Ryann played well as a rookie....it was unfortunate to see Ryann unable to scramble to get up and down on the final hole vs, Hedwall on 18.

Rosie even relied on Ryann......a rookie vs. a Solheim veteran..... to team up with Stacy....Stacy & Angela had been performing poorly as a team.

 

If anything....it's Angela who has a very poor record at the Solheim....in 2011, 2013 and 2015....Angela lost all her matches except for taking down Suzann in singles in 2015.

 

I for one believe in the Golf Gods and karma....the Euros were on a role until the Suzann vs. Alison incident...it really fired up the American to come back in singles to win the Solheim.

 

Unfortunately, Angela's mom's cancer has returned and Angela will play a limited sked for 2021 to be closer with her family.

Hooray, the return of Nelly Korda and Lydia Ko!

 

Will they excel or rusty, can't wait to find out!

 

 

The better question is:

Who has Tina hired to loop for Lydia and what fruit will she be cutting up for Lydia?

With a recent T52 & T61....you know Tina sent out a pink slip.

Will Jason Hamilton be back for more ABUSE from The Dragon Lady?🤣

Going with So Yeon and Inbee, with Danielle and Lydia backing them up.  Mind and Pannarat as my dark horse, if only because I want to see the talking heads' brains explode trying to pronounce the last names consistently.

 

The real challenge this week is to try and pick the team that will finish DFL.  That's a hard one.

There won't be any Rolex points, because of the alternate shot.

With CME points at stake (400 points based on website), does this mean the likes of Kelly, Bianca, Andrea, Haley etc have a chance to move to improve their current (low) ranking (to retain their card, that is)?

Is the CME ranking ("Points List?") only for the current year reshuffle?  Or has the EOY Top 80 moved from money list to CME?

Yes, winning the tournament will move all of them to inside Top-50 "Race to CME Globe" seasonal standing.

Yes, LPGA decided to dump using the official money for priority status.

 

Instead, the "Race to CME Globe" seasonal standing will be used to decide everything; from 2nd reshuffling to 2022 Priority List.

I just looked at the map and discovered that you're only 5 hours drive to Midland, Michigan.

 

COVID pandemic is bad; but nothing is worse than preventing you from spending one or two days with Bianca, Dottie, Yuka or Kelly!

How I wish I could cross the border and not have to quarantine on the way back... As it stands, it's almost impossible to do!

I like the poetry of Minjee Lee winning.   Her brother, Min Woo Lee, just won in Scotland on the Euro tour.  He swings like a young Tiger, btw.

 

He's only 22 too! And now in the BO! Oops this is LPGA haha. Minjee has been missing for a while - the girl from Perth needs to show up... Actually her and Yuka are a good pairing... Now, how they got together I'll leave you guys to speculate - you guys are better in these kinds of stories (whether true or not, make it funny  pls.)

Land border closed except for essential personnel....I doubt he's gonna hop on a plane to fanboy.

 

You passive brag about how much money you have...what's preventing you from flying/driving to fanboy to any event........oh I forgot....you're in the BINDER along with @Argonne69🤣

 

I think you've even said you have property on the west coast.

I'm SMH on 80% of this year's pairings....they make no sense.

 

Did the new commish have a Zoom call and have everyone pick out of a hat for their partners?

 

I'm fanboying The Rocket & Jenn Song for the win.
LUV The Rocket.

#TEAMUP.

 

From 2019

Question...does the make-up wash out of the gals polyesters shirts?
