LPGA Blogging

OK, so Michelle Wie did not rock the Sony Open in Hawaii and was upstaged in the local media by Tadd Fujikawa, the 16-year-old amateur who shot his way into contention going into the final round. It looked to me from her stats she was playing hurt and her wrist was bothering her much more than she was letting on. I still expect a big year from her on the LPGA tour, but an even bigger year from Ai Miyazato, now that she has a year's worth of experience under her belt. I don't think Karrie Webb (onechan's favorite golfer!) will continue to play at the same level she did in 2006, but I do think Lorena Ochoa will pass Annika Sorenstam and gain a #1 world ranking before the 2007 season is over. Check out the current world rankings here--Annika's competition is as close as it's been in a very long time. What I'm trying to say is that the LPGA is going to be the tour to watch this year. Oh, and onechan's old enough to go to the driving range this summer. Look out!
