Why? I'm rooting for Suzann too.
I like her a lot more since she's started to get her temper under control.

I think your thoughts on ESPN are the same as mine on Christie Kerr. While they do some good (very little), they just annoy too much to get over it.
I told you Harry, I'm a jinx
Redman. She is... slow as all hell.
You got that right. I walked the front 9 with the last group - A. Miyazato, SH Lee and Nordquist. Saw some fine golf, but nothing really spectacular. Then I realized that in certain areas, I could walk ahead a hole and watch Pettersen (whom I think is very exciting), Gulbis and Redman. I only did this for 1 or 2 holes, because Redmand is no fun to watch - she looks and behaves keyed up - kind of agitated. On the green she'd stride around the surface, then walk back and forth to and from the hole as if she was stalking it. Ugh - no fun.
On the other hand, it was a fun event (well run IMHO), a neat new course to see, and a real priviledge to be there today. This morning we had the feeling that anyone could win this and with the playoff - that's just what happened. After a quick bite and stroll through the Safeway food tent :act-up:, I met up with Spouse (following Ochoa). We sat at 18 (plenty of room to sit or stand) and watched the groups finishing, the updates on the manual scoreboard, and the TV coverage on a big screen. The lead seemed to constantly change, and folks hung in there to see the finish. We knew that 17 was a birdie hole, so there was a great likelihood that the win would occur there. Good for MJ Hur - I don't know her, but hope to speak to her at another event down the road.
Good times, folks - signing off for now. Spouse found a restaurant for dinner - Ochoa's!
I prefer your stuff to the stats. We can always look up stats.
agreed!
By the way, did anyone else notice the commercial for tickets to the Solheim Cup at Rich Harvest Farms?
Can somebody please explain why they have a par 4 that is 220 yards?
I just realized that the Safeway was the first of six consecutive weeks (seven if you count the Solheim) of televised LPGA coverage. Yay!
The Canadian Open is getting very limited coverage in the U.S. unfortunately. . .
CN Canadian Women's Open. . . but at least there are tournaments and TV coverage.

And at least the TV coverage isn't ESPN!
Throughout the weekend, LPGA.com experienced a sharp rise in traffic as it had the week prior, during the record-breaking Solheim Cup. Page views to the site overall were up 91%, while weekly unique visitors were up 149%. Page views for the leaderboard were up 84% - likely spurred by Sunday’s sudden-death situation. TV viewership also rose considerably compared with last year. The highest spike came during Sunday’s round with viewership up 65%.
