Women's British Open Will Be The One To Watch

Hello. While the Buick in Michigan will be of much interest, the Women's British Open will be the one to watch this week. Here are the many questions that will be answered:
  1. Can Karrie Webb keep it going? Webb would have to be Player of the Year right now after winning the Evian Masters. She won the Kraft Nabisco and lost the LPGA Championship in a playoff. An amzing year in the big events. Webb also gets Comeback Player of the Year.
  2. Can Lorena Ochoa pull off a major? If Ochoa won this week, she'd be neck and neck with Webb. What a finish the rest of the season would be.
  3. Can Annika win consecutive majors? If so, she could be headed to Player of the Year again.
  4. Can Laura Davies keep it going? She must be encouraged after her T2 finish in the Evian. She now goes back home to play. Should be a factor again.
  5. Is it Michelle's time? If the courses are wet and/or windy, you'd have to think Wie would be a favourite with her length and after her T2 Evian finish.
  6. Will any of the top players in the Women's British Open come to the CN Candian Women's Championship the following week? It will be a big indicator of the future of Canadian golf events, as the Canadian Open will have the same situation next year. Anika will definitely miss to play in the Swedish Open. How many top players will play their 3rd week in a row after 2 top events and a continental flight? Probably very few.

It should be another great week on the LPGA.

Regards,

Steve
