Pressel sucks. She certainly wasn't picked for her on air talent.

 

She sounds like fingernails scraping a chalk board.

They mean business; all three of the final group birdied Hole #1, the 484 yards par 5.

I have the third round on the TV as a warmup for later and it's raising all sorts of questions.

 

What is TV's obsession with showing Lydia eating things on the golf course?  This time it looked like a rice cake, but I swear I've seen more shots of Lydia eating fruit over the years than I have of any player outside the 25 biggest names hitting golf shots.

 

Is her caddie really shorter than Lydia?  Sure looks like it on TV.

 

For all I read about the horrible weather it didn't really look bad on TV.  A little cool, a little breezy.  It wasn't summer-day-in-Scotland bad, let alone who-put-this-November-tournament-in-New Jersey bad.

 

15 to 20 mph winds with gusts over 30 mph is a little breezy? Where do you normally tee it up? Mount Everest? Lol.

Bah. I've been a fan since she won her first USWA. I'm happy to see that she became the player that many thought she would be. I don't mind a little feisty.

 

 

I can agree with @KBong that DK loves attention, but I enjoy the fact that she keeps it real and isn't afraid to be her self. #nofilter

Whatever Sky Sports are showing now, they need to ditch it and get to Florida.

So with Judy R likely retiring soon...who should replace her?

Hopefully someone with some decent LPGA level credentials, someone who can actually relate to the players playing in a final round contending for a Major championship.

Gerina Piller....likely divorced Martin the goofball.🤣...and back to her maiden name.

 

@tbowles411 @Argonne69 myself and some past WRX members like to refer to Gerina as CHEESE.😂 for obvious reasons.

 

Cheese is all mine, I take full credit for that one...  back when nicknames were cool.  I logged back in for the first time in forever just to post that when I noticed the name change :).

WTH...more ATTENTION SEEKING from PHONY Kang.

Do you know how INAPPROPRIATE it is to flip the "bird" in S. Korea, ESPECIALLY for a FEMALE.

 

I assume you know how Kim Bi-o was handed a 3 year suspension by the KGPA for flipping the "bird".

 

https://www.golfdigest.com/story/report-bio-kims-suspension-on-the-korean-tour-reduced-from-three-years-to-one#:~:text=The Korean Tour unanimously voted,the penalty was too severe.

 

I wondered if Danielle might have been chirping off about another customer in a sushi restaurant in 2015 in Palm Springs....who overheard her....and became so angry to threaten her life.

1) Another tactic by Tina to get Lydia's competitors to let down their guarding eating some of Lydia's fruit.

Tina is Lydia's CFO....Chief FruitCutting Officer.

Years ago.....I heard that Lydia did not really eat any junk food.

 

2) Yes, Derek is quite short. Jesus Mozo, Belen's brother was also a short guy...he recently looped for TRUNK SLAMMING Yealimi.

Staff....good to have you back...please post more....we need more of the old timers to come back...they were all so much fun.

 

I thought it was @tbowles411 who created CHEESE...he LUVS Ms. Mendoza...he also LUV's Blair O'Neal...but so do I...but his taste can stray at times...he used to FAWN over The Pink Diva...BLAH.

Tommy also needed a COMFORT DOG himself when Creamer got married.🤣

I was at this event back in 2010 in Portland...but was unaware at the time this nonsense was occurring.

I just remembered this.....talking about short caddies.

The Ammaccapane sisters can be nasty.

Gonna be a good back nine, let's get ready to rumble!

[KBong]

LMAO

Lydia and Derek roasting Parsons that her current Pro Concept irons are more forgiving than the PXG POSER irons.

 

My memory is not great.

Don't PXG clubs have a "Sweet Spot the SIZE of Texas"🤣

Michelle Wie did some booth time when she was out with an injury.  I thought she was pretty good.  She had a touch of Judy balance:  Tell it like it is, but have a bit of compassion while doing it.  I know Michelle wants to play but she seems to perpetually  be one more injury away from hanging up her spurs.

[KBong]

Classic Rocket...gets to -4 today after 10 holes, then gives up 3 bogeys coming home...ugh.

 

WTH....I'm really disappointed Jeeno GAGGED this week....but not as bad as the last moment GAG by Mental Midget Rory in Dubai.🤣

yeah, just life moving in other directions - I'm going to try and keep up more this year, but I think I said that a year to two ago as well... 😞

 

I do recall the Pink Diva worship days, and the dark cloud that enveloped the LPGA forum when she got married lol...

 

Cheese has always been mine :), plus a Charley fan as well.  Shame Gerina fell off after round one, hopefully she can put together a good year.

I'm sure Wiezy fits the bill as far as credentials goes, but for me it's a hard pass. Not a fan of her "valley girl" vocabulary style. 

I doubt any of us will be completely happy with who ever gets the nod, oh well, it is what it is.

If I could have collected a penny for every "um" and "awe" from Wie's interviews, I'd have enough money to buy a seat on Bezo's Rocketship to the moon....just sayin.🤣

[Dazgore]

Yeah, too many "like" thrown into each sentence.

 

What about someone like Gulbis.

 

Paige Sprinack(?)

[KBong]

Come on....WTH....GC.

Why are we seeing The Nelly & Lexi Show when both ARE NOT CONTENDING.

[KBong]

The ENTITLED Canadian Princess misses a 3 ft putt on #16....slams her putter into the green and does not look to make sure she didn't damage the green....WTH.

 

When will we Canadians have a golfer we can ROOT for....Weir is an aloof fool.

ECP with the moose last few holes.

[KBong]

I don't see why we need a woman to replace Judy R when she retires,

We should want the BEST candidate to replace Judy....female or male.

 

I used to work for a large US multi-national.

In the past, they usually promoted an American to be the Canadian President/CEO.

An American woman was promoted in the 1990's to be the Canadian President/CEO.

She never liked when people congratulated her on being the 1st female Canadian President/CEO.

She desired the respect as being the best candidate for the role and not promoted based on gender....I agree with her and she was a strong leader.

It really is an unfair contest....with Lexi & ECP as the likely weekly winners.

In our Pink Shirt society of diversity, inclusion, WOKE, pink ribbons and cotton candy...we need to create a better contest so ALL can participate and GET A RIBBON.🤣

Don't let Lydia's mild mannered demeanor fool you, she's an assassin. Daniel Kang doesn't like to lose so the next couple of holes will be interesting.

I'm still all in for Feherty, golf could use a little humor.

[8602081]

Just had a flashback horror.. when I saw Ko's ball in the bunker..

 

She survived..

 

Another bunker.. fairway on 18th😲
