    Charles Schwab Championship 11/4-11/7

    These days, it seems like it's all sports, all the time in SF. Exhausting - and I'm just watching! From Thursday through Sunday of this week the Schwab Cup Championship is being held at Harding Park. Golf Channel to cover it, I believe. To my eye, the course and facilities are beautifully...

    2009 Samsung World Champ.

    This is a fun little money maker taking place at Torrey Pines this week. The field is limited to the top 20, so if you're in the area get out there for a look at the best in ladies golf. Defending Champ is Paula Creamer. Play begins on Thursday, so no real news yet, but a friend is there...

    California Amateur Championship

    I guess this is the right place to post this. The 2009 men's am championship is this week. Lucky for me, it's happening a "chip shot" from the old abode. :clapp: It started today (I was otherwise occupied) and concludes on Saturday. I'm going to watch a bit on Tuesday for sure, then we'll...

    Michelob Open at Kingsmill

    Next week - May 7 - 10. The field is listed (and, once again it's a good looking one), so I'm starting a thread here. Missing from this field is Paula - but I understand that she's in the field for an Asian event. More money? Prior committment? Sponsor's obligation? Dunno. Anyway, we will...

    Corona Championship - Spoilers Inside

    Ok. LPGA is en (Morelia, Michuacan) Mexico this week - April 23-26 for the Corona Championship. The field is set. Defending champ: Lorena (having bested the runner-up by 11 strokes last year.) I certainly like her chances, but I think Christie Kerr has a good shot at this one. Anyone...

    Golf Week

    Today I happened to see the April 9 issue of this magazine. It is skinny - I'd guess 50 pages, maybe. Anyway, dynamite picture of Brittany Lincicome on the front, great coverage of her Kraft win, plus shorter features on Christina Kim, Kristy McPherson, Angela and others. One reporter focused...

    Opinions, please!

    We've got a local charity tournament coming up. Players range in ability from low single digit handicaps to no handicaps. Mulligans will be sold. In addition, we are trying to decide weather to sell strings (to help speed play and benefit the lesser skilled players), or to allow gimmees for...

    HSBC Women's Champs

    Thought I'd start a thread here. There is TV coverage for this, but it is scant. 1 hour each day for rounds 2,3 and 4. Sheesh! No matter - I will be watching. Lorena will be defending. And spouse will be cheering. :clapp:

    Juli in town

    Timing is everything. As I made my way downtown to do an errand, seeing a player, much less Juli Inkster, was the last thing on my mind. I toddled in and out of a shop on Post street, then walked half a block where I saw her walking into an Ecco store for a promotional event. She was surrounded...

    2009 LPGA Tour Schedule

    The 2009 LPGA schedule should be published in November. Given our current economic woes, corporate sponsorship will be more important than ever. I sometimes get inside info on LPGA stuff, and if I do, I'll try to remember to pass it on here. I did see some good news in today's S.F.Chronicle...

    Nicest LPGA Swing

    Great question. We were just talking about this. It's tough to beat Annika's or Lorena's, but recently, we've had the opportunity to see most of the field up close. The swing of one Korean player stands out - Ji Young Oh - very fluid. Sweet.
