Re: Women\'s British Open Thread (The Old Course, St. Andrews)
Should be great to watch this weekend. Ochoa off to a fast start, tho still early of course. There's at least one poster here who I know hopes she forgets her sweater on Sunday... [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
Srsly, would be kind of fitting for her to win this one. I'll root for her as Pressel & Inkster are out of it, and unless Creamer, Gulbis & Kerr make a big move. Plus, I'll shot something if the LPGA starts dragging out a BPW/OAM story. Wiesy will prolly do "ok" here as it's a bombers course with little rough, and everyone will be "zomg she's back". Doesn't really sound like she played that great today, though. Wonderful pic of Creamer, BTW, and it would also work great as a response pic. Maybe add a "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] It's sad how most women do not realize at all how much more attractive most men think something like this is than the pancake makeup, Pam wannabe, trying to vamp too hard, "glamour pic" look. Save themselves a lot of time, money & heartache, IMO, although I know jack [censored] about women, so maybe it's just me. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: Women\'s British Open Thread (The Old Course, St. Andrews)
One thing about Ochoa - her choke shot is usually left. Left at St. Andrews is OK. No lakes on the left down the stretch. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

But, StA would appear to favor Wie much more than Pressel, in theory at least. Still, poor show by Morgan, no question. Hope it comes down to a playoff between Ochoa & Inkster; historic win either way.

Re: Women\'s British Open Thread (The Old Course, St. Andrews)
Wow, looking at the leaderboard for this, the weather must have been terrible, but I can't find an AP article to describe what happened. Inkster +9 today, Wendy Ward +7, Annika something like +4 or +5, and Ochoa six clear.
There are definite parallels between her and the other noted major choke artist, Sergio. Both will have leads going into the final day and have led wire-to-wire. But six shots is a lot to gag. Also, no clue where the coverage is for this. Tried to find it on ABC, ESPN, and TNT. I guess nobody cares...

As an aside, Creamer turns 21 tomorrow.

Re: Women\'s British Open Thread (The Old Course, St. Andrews)
Comes on 1pm Eastern for two hours Sunday. Hard to see Lorena blowing it, but if the winds are 35mph again tomorrow ya never know.
If Annika shoots a 70, and Ochoa decides to play in the Road Hole bunker.... Not likely, but not impossible. LOL at Inkster's 79-68-82.

Watching the men's Open weekend mornings is my favorite golf viewing of the year. Heck, I'd watch coverage of podiatrists from Pasadena playing St. Andrews. Okay, maybe not. An hour and a half or two hours of tape delay kinda sucks though. Ochoa is really head and shoulders above everyone else this season, which is funny because she looks like she's about 4'8" on TV. (Just looked it up, says she's 5'6").

Re: Women\'s British Open Thread (The Old Course, St. Andrews)
yeah, the tape delay sucks as we are also discussing in the Buick thread. Also, when I tried to watch a bit yesterday the coverage drove me nuts. They were showing hardly any shots, and it seemed like the ones they were showing were 5' putts. It is one thing to show par putts live, but in a tape delay highlight package I want to see the course and interesting shots. I thought the coverage sucked. 8 minutes of talking, a par putt, an iron shot and a break. Slight exaggeration, but I didn't watch much.
