WILL SORENSTAM MAKE THE CUT?

[THE SHRINK]

Good read by Nover on this...

I, personally don't think she will and more importantly, I don't want her to!

THE SHRINK

 

[max1234]

If she playes here absolute best she's got a chance. I mean her BEST. But that's doubtful with all of media attention, crowds and pressure. When she was going for that 3rd Open title she folded up badly.

NO WAY

womens open was here in 1991
winning score of 70-75-71-67 = 283
played to a par of 71 vs mens par 0f 70

145 will not make cut here
cut is usually 2 or 3 over

she cant shoot this number
she palyed there in march and made 1 birdie
#11

she has two birdie chances on course 2 and 11

SHRINK, I'm glad you changed your avatar that other one was freak'n me out.

I don't think she makes the cut either. why don't we take a PGA player and put him in a LPGA event and set an O/U for how many strokes he would win by.

suprised 90% is on her to make it, but I would suspect a lot of that money is "We're rooting for you Annika!"

I think she makes the cut barely

what is the relevance of that link, played at the same course?!

 

[SENDITIN]

Rob,

The link shows that the top women golfers in 1991 shot about where it will take to make the cut for the men on the same course. Now granted the women have gotten better since then, but Annika will be playing from the back tees now.

sen said it
they played colonial
and tournament was played at 6400 yards par 71
while mens tournament is par 70 7000 yards

a hell of a big difference

 

[max1234]

500 more yds, longer rough, tougher pins and more pressure.

i cant get the picture out of my mind of her <choke> in the tv match with webb and woods

classic gas truck job>>>

 

[Brock Landers]

who gives two shits about what she does, this shouldn't even be an issue. Golf is 2nd page news at best.

 

[seaurchin2217]

brock
very erudite
maybe to you it is
but cash is cash
and i dont have enough

 

[max1234]

Sea,

That's why I'm hoping the wind blows on Thursday and Friday like it did last week. She's a high ball hitter and she doesn't work the ball very well at all.

max


you going over?

 

[max1234]

I can't. I've got a tourney on Sat and Sunday. If Beemer was in top three I might blow off the tourney and go over anyway. Any matchups you like this week?

 

[seaurchin2217]

yea in rubber room

furyk is my best

you played trophy club??

 

five dimes has sorenstam wins colonial +25,000

 

[RobFunk]

the other thing is: what if she is actually competitive? what does that mean to the future of golf? do we get a uni-sex tour or what?
