You know who have clear heads, Charley Hull and Georgia Hall.  They realized Olympics meant nothing to them and this week is their best chance to steal tons of Race to CME Globe ranking points.  They've gladly relegated Olympics glory to Jodi Ewart Shadoff, who incidentally is outside of Top-100 CME ranking.

 

Will the Philippines care when Bianca struggles in late November and December and fails to pass the Q-School?  Will they care if Bianca struggles at the Symetra Tour in 2022 and eventually drops out of women's professional golf?

 

I don't know whether they care, but I know one thing for sure.  They can't do anything for her!

 

 

What is the meaning of your post?  What are you trying to say?  That Bianca was foolish for playing in the OIympics rather than an event hosted by Niall Horan?  

 

I am asking because I am not sure what you are trying to get at.

You have a point, but, she did start playing at Camp Aguinaldo... Army campgrounds with golf course... Army/Philippine govt run campground... Jungolf Philippines supporter / promoter = Bianca... Trying to grow the game in the Phils etc  etc

 

Current Olympic 55kg woman Weightlifting medalist is assured of at least US$750k for her winning a gold medal so far 🙂 Dunno if winning a gold medal in golf yields an amount more or less than that.  That'll be up to local private companies to decide after it happens... If it happens.  Update: now at US$1MM (I guess when it rains it pours, in a good way, in this case)

Suffice to say, what's done is done and will just root for her 🙂

Please don't do this.

18majors has a TON of money...I assume you don't have the financial resources to get caught up in a long drawn out libel suit.

You'll end up bankrupt.

Please retract your post please.

I hate trans Atlantic flights. 

 

I did so many of them in my corporate days. Always so tired for several days

 

I’d stick it out in Europe rather than return home. Maybe head to northern Scotland or Northern Ireland and enjoy to cool weather 

 

Perhaps a stop along the way for some whisky tastings and tours?

KPMG keeps teasing us with these data snippets, but has failed to release the total package to us.  As a result, can't help but feel we've been cheated.

 

 

 


InBee 🥇 is miles ahead of the other top putters! 
 

P/S: sorry I belatedly realised I read that LPGA Tweet wrongly ... ie Annie Park is 2nd on the “made putts” stats Listing (not that LPGA mistook InBee and Annie Park!)

What????...no LUV for Alison, Muni, Su Oh or Gulbis???

 

Joking aside, Muni and Alison are quietly having decent seasons. Well, good enough to keep their cards.

Any guesses on When does Thitikul aka Jeeno/Jeen (?) gets her full LPGA card? This week, if she’s playing the ISPS Handa? 🤞 

 

She's been in the mix several times this year. This week could be the week.

TV coverage is great. Heck, it's better than the Evian.

 

With 24/7 Feherty this week...no surprise of 5 hrs/day of coverage.

BUT

I think it might be boring to watch....best to record and watch in FF.

 

With such a weak field...there will be many gals and guys we likely won't be too interested to watch.

 

I didn't mind watching the 2020 co-ed event in Oz cause the LOVELY Hee Young "The Rocket" Park won.

.currently sits 109 in earnings.

 

 

You're truly out of date and you don't even know it!  You're WRX's version of Amanda Blumenherst.

 

LPGA's priority is now decided by Race to CME Globe ranking, it's nothing to do with official money.

 

Muni He is #107 on CME ranking with 129.98; she needs to be inside #100 to keep her card.  She'll reach inside #100 if she finishes T15 or better at this week's LET caliber event.

 

Of course, she needs to keep her good play until the end of the year.

There're 66 LPGA players, the other 78 players are either LET or invited players.  Outside of LPGA, Atthaya Thitikul is the highest Rolex ranked player at #61.  

 

The pressure is clearly on LPGA, it would be a collective failure if one of them doesn't take the crown.

 

Thitikul is currently better than at least 40 of those LPGA players.  Wouldn't be surprised at all if she wins

The reality is nobody knows at any given tournament.

 

Jin Young Ko was Rolex #1 for 100 weeks and she won her last tournament before the Amundi Evian Championship.  But she finished T60 last week.

 

It's a fool's errand trying to predict the outcome of any tournament before the first ball has been struck.

Guys cut 18majors some slack, no offense taken here from his posts...

 

Just saying there's always more than meets the eye... Eg not what we see all the time is what is the complete reality...

🙂

 

 

I see enough on here, I'm not sure I'd wanna see what's going on outside of here.

THIS WEEK:   I'm gonna go with Georgia Hall and dark 🐴 (apparently) Ursula 🇫🇮

 

Ohhh, and Annika!

 

Ouch! You snuck in and snagged Georgia lol. I like this choice. She's all yours.

This will likely go terribly wrong, but I'll go all full time LET players only. Atthaya is a clear favorite, but I'll pass.(silly me)
Ill try Steph Kyriacou and Diksha Dagar

I don't care for her, but I think Inkster edges out Annika.

The best thing about Annika playing is we won't hear her in the booth....unless she trunk slams and invited into the booth on the weekend.

 

I'll fanboy/root for my favs:

Jackie Gallagher Smith

Jan Stephenson (an Asian/Korean fav)🤣

Kris Tschetter.

 

I wonder if Wie sent Danielle Ammaccapane a good luck text.🤣

 

I hope Big Momma makes the cut so we can see her on TV this weekend riding around in a cart and taking a BIG swing with her driver with a butt hanging out of her mouth.

 

It says a max cap of 7.4 for Am's.

So what is the eligibility criteria of others, like the pros to qualify?
