Pettersen Player of the Year?
Hello. Congrats to Suzann Pettersen for winning the McDonald's LPGA Championship. Pettersen held off two-time runner-up Karrie Webb for a one-stroke victory.
With this win, her second of the year, and a runner-up in the Kraft Nabisco, a tournament she had all but sealed up, is it time to say Pettersen is the LPGA Player of the Year to this point? If nothing else, she has certainly burst onto the scene. For the moment, she is in the spotlight, and a heavy favourite to win the US Women's Open.
Of course, the same questions are now even more prevalent now than they were before. Will Lorena Ochoa finally win a major? Will Annika come back to her dominating form? Will Morgan Pressel's Kraft Nabisco win be the last this decade by an American? Will Natalie Gulbis ever win an event (and if so, will anyone notice or care)? And finally, is Michelle Wie in an injury slump, or establishing herself as the youngest has-been ever?
No matter who you cheer for, the LPGA has a lot of intriguing stories. Here's hoping for an exciting US Women's Open.
Regards,
Steve
