For the fourth annual edition of my WTA and LPGA money list countdown I will focus on the dynamic dozen from each tour, the top 12 on the money lists. For the WTA, singles, doubles and mixed are combined for total earnings. Here are the #7 players for 2016: Garbine Muguruza (WTA) and Anna Nordqvist … Continue reading

Like 2013, this year I will do a countdown of the top money list leaders from both the WTA and LPGA. Last year I did the top 30, but this year I will do the top 25. Note that as of this post, the retired Li Na has been removed from the WTA website money … Continue reading

Shanshan Feng Leads 2013 ShopRite LPGA Classic After Round 2; Chie Arimura Makes A Move
I believe in Chie Arimura. Coming into the 2013 season, I felt it would be between her and Moriya Jutanugarn for Rookie of the Year.

I have to admit that poultry comment from Sergio Garcia reawakened memories of Fuzzy Zoeller…and had me considering switching Fairways and Forehands…to just Forehands. Basically, just follow tennis and drop … Continue reading
2011 LPGA Shoprite Classic Highlights
Congrats to one of my favorite players, Brittany Lincicome. I think she could conceivably win 3 or 4 Majors in her career, a great talent.
2010 Shoprite LPGA Classic Rewind
A nice look at Ai Miyazato’s win in 2010 at the Shoprite LPGA Classic. Ai started 2010 on such a roll. It hasn’t been the same in 2011, but maybe this week she will find her mojo again.
