ADT Championship One Of The Best
Hello. Congrats to the LPGA for getting it right. The ADT Championship is one of the best tournaments in professional golf. It showed why this past week.
Only 32 ladies qualified through objective standards (no exemptions, even for defending champion Julietta Granada). All had two rounds to get into the top 16. There was a 3 way playoff Friday with Annika Sorenstam being knocked out.
Then Saturday, one round decides who is in the top 8. A 4-way playoff results for 2 spots! Both Kims make it in with birdies!
Then Sunday, where one round determines a million dollar winner. Lorena Ochoa, #1 in everything meaningful, has a 4 shot lead with 2 holes left over Natalie Gulbis. Gulbis birdies, Ochoa doubles and it's game on!
A playoff seems likely after Gulbis hits it 20 feet. Then Ochoa hits, in her own words, her career shot from the rough to 2 feet! What drama.
It's probably the best way to decide the top players. I'd like to see it done elsewhere. It's great entertainment. Kudos LPGA!
Regards,
Steve
