I know it a big advantage for Lydia to be able to play these extra tournaments for ROY points but she has earned that privilege just as Jaye Marie has for this weeks field. I'm sure all the opposition had the same opportunity had they been good enough.Colin N.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04726116294845057929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1198629951037494295.post-42178424191088018922014-02-24T15:41:51.763-05:002014-02-24T15:41:51.763-05:00I think because Lydia was a sponsor exemption in a...I think because Lydia was a sponsor exemption in a limited-field event, she doesn't get to count her winnings toward any official money list or get ROY points for her finish.The Constructivisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07242149985581771922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1198629951037494295.post-90592914545034363612014-02-23T23:54:35.863-05:002014-02-23T23:54:35.863-05:00I'm sure Bruce Se Ri Pak will be having a gigg...I'm sure Bruce Se Ri Pak will be having a giggle over it too will bring back some great memories of her 1998 year. Probably love to be back trying for ROY again! I don't know who is adjusting the LPGA stats but it also looks like Lydia has lost her pro status as she won $0.00 last weekend on her bio page which also means some of her other stats are out. Perhaps they ought to have you looking after it for them...Colin N.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04726116294845057929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1198629951037494295.post-7022178693568177322014-02-23T20:54:47.145-05:002014-02-23T20:54:47.145-05:00Correction I meant to say seventeen birdies, not s...Correction I meant to say seventeen birdies, not seventy.

I do hate the way players and commentators also say they left a few out there because probably so did half the field an if they all went in you'd see a different result anyway. It was good to see Anna not falter like Ariya did last year which goes to show what experience does. I was also watching to see if NYC would beat Jessica and by how much after making the comment after the Bahamas that NYC was far more likely to be in contention next tournament than Korda. Just had a look at the ROY points and wow looks like So Yeon Ryu and Se Ri Pak are getting a second chance!! I'm sure Lydia won't worry no double bogies this week and hit almost all the fairways which was good. She would be a little disappointed in her last round. Nothing replaces experience especially playing Pattaya for the first time.Colin N.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04726116294845057929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1198629951037494295.post-16412632992440466212014-02-23T13:30:53.428-05:002014-02-23T13:30:53.428-05:00That's why she's called The Rocket (tho&#...That's why she's called The Rocket (tho' would be pretty impossible to waste 70 birdies in a 72-hole event!--u talkin' 'bout her 2014 total?)!The Constructivisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07242149985581771922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1198629951037494295.post-81199678581135184362014-02-23T13:27:07.576-05:002014-02-23T13:27:07.576-05:00Noticed He young Park wasted seventy birdies.
