Can someone tell me please if Stupples is wearing panty hose underneath her Capri's? She looks absurd.

Kristy M makes a nice birdie to go to -1.

[Smallville]

Yeah, these are great. I am just going to be happy if half my girls make the cut! (Looks like two are gonna have a real tough time to do that right now!)

(Ooops, I thought this was the contest thread, sorry!)

I have N.Y. She gave Yani Tseng a run for rookie of the year last year.

I don't think there's a flat green on the course. None that I saw.

These greens seem as difficult and quick as just about any of the PGA Tour event greens. Am I making this up? Yes, I'm watching on TV. But they do seem that way at least.

 

[JB]

They are definitely fast. But I would not put them up there with the PGA majors. Or some of the other ones like the Nicklaus tourny. But no question they are fast. The girls seem very tentative on them. I think by the weekend, they will figure them out a little more.

I think that in every tournament the players get better by the weekend, but I think you are underestimating the greens. They are nasty. They also mentioned during the broadcast that it is set up just 9 yards shorter than it was for the Men's Senior Open.

There's some cool threads in there. Thx HL.

 

[Smallville]

I always look forward to the pictures. Thanks Harry!

 

[AHacker'sHacker]

Harry, those are some fantastic pictures. I especially like the ones where the player is off in the distance in mid swing and most of the picture is of the course.

 

[OFvar]

pictures are the best part of any book everybody knows that :clap:

Morgan Pressel:

Great shot of the course.

 

[ClairefromClare]

Great shot of the course.

Agreed. I didn't see that hole Tuesday. Will have to look for it tomorrow.

 

[JB]

Soxy,
Playing to the same distance as the Mens Champions Tour is no great feat in my eyes being that people have said for years that the Champions Tour major courses is too short. But this distance is acceptable like I said. But 6300 like earlier in the year with wide open fairways is not.

As for the greens, NOT A CHANCE are these as fast as Augusta, or any mens major. Not even close.

 

[GolferGal]

I LOVE the pictures Harry. I love seeing what everyone is wearing. Those white shorts that Suzanne has on are awesome, those the same ones Nike just sent over to us in Pink and they are incredibly comfortable. I scan this thread just for the pictures you post, thanks!!

 

[bogeyme]

Very intimidating hole. I'd be thinking the whole time "Don't hit it in the sand".
