Lorena Ochoa Invitational - Epilogue
Catriona Matthew's victory was the fourth of her 17-year LPGA career and her first since the 2009 British Open. Partly because of her constant presence on Europe's Solheim team, I always get a little underwhelmed when I start looking at Matthew's career numbers. At second glance however, when you...
Mizuno Classic - Epilogue
Momoko Ueda's first victory at the 2007 Mizuno Classic (has it really been four years?) gave her the opportunity to play full-time on the LPGA Tour. She hasn't yet been an upper-echelon player (before this weekend, only seven Top 10 finishes in 69 starts since the beginning of 2008) though she...
Sunrise LPGA Taiwan Championship - Epilogue
No, I'm not surprised. As commenter Fanslaststand said, "Yani's home soil is anywhere grass grows". Yani Tseng's seventh LPGA victory of the year was her sixth win in her last twelve starts. Having clinched the Player of the Year award prior to this event, she now has 19 Hall of Fame points with...
Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia - Epilogue
Na Yeon Choi was #6 in my rankings coming into this weekend despite not having registered a single victory in 2011. For the second straight week, she had to battle the hottest player in the world for the victory but this time Na Yeon came out on top. It was her fifth career victory, all of which...
LPGA Hana Bank Championship - Epilogue
In my tournament preview, I wondered how anybody - even Yani Tseng - could be favored to win over Na Yeon Choi given Choi's record on the course and her recent play. Serves me right for doubting the Terror of Taiwan. The countdown continues - Yani's sixth LPGA victory of 2011 is the eleventh of...
Solheim Cup - Epilogue
Make no mistake - I am not blaming Ryann O'Toole for the Americans' loss yesterday. She just happened to be the one without a chair when the music stopped. A lot of other people's shortcomings placed Ryann in the situation where she absolutely had to hang on - and she couldn't. Michelle Wie was...
Navistar LPGA Classic - Epilogue
Weren't we just talking about what a washout Lexi Thompson's first full professional season has been? After challenging at last year's Evian Masters, I wrote that it was nearly inevitable that Thompson would break Marlene Hagge's record as the youngest player to win an LPGA event. In seven 2011...
Walmart NW Arkansas Championship - Epilogue
And the beat goes on... Yani Tseng's fifth victory of 2011 was the tenth of her career. She now has 16 Hall of Fame points, tying her with Cristie Kerr for second on the active unqualified list to Laura Davies' 25. Arkansas was her second successful title defense in six weeks, having done the...
CN Canadian Women's Open - Epilogue
Brittany Lincicome's second win of 2011 was her fifth in seven years on the LPGA Tour. Since the beginning of her rookie season in 2005, the only active players who have won more often than Brittany are Cristie Kerr (10), Paula Creamer (9), Yani Tseng (9), Suzann Pettersen (8), Jiyai Shin (8) and...
Safeway Classic - Epilogue
Suzann Pettersen's comeback from nine strokes down equaled the second-largest comeback on Tour since the beginning of the 2006 season. Eventual champion Seon Hwa Lee started the final round of the 2008 Ginn Tribute nine strokes behind Sophie Gustafson and Louise Friberg was ten shots back of Ji...
