The Unofficial Streak Ends; LPGA Action
Okay, we can put the Tiger Woods streak to bed now. Woods lost to Nick O’Hern today in overtime no less at the Accenture Match Play tournament in Tuscon. Woods made some horrendous swings today and ended up putting himself in dire situtations that even he couldn’t get himself out of. However, I think this will bode well for Tiger simply because he can concentrate on winning majors again and not worry about all the hoopla surrounding the “streak”. I’m still picking Phil to win the Masters, but this loss might light a major fire in Tiger’s belly and motivate him even more to win at Augusta.
The LPGA continues its stay in Hawaii and after the second round, Stacy Prammanasudh leads the Fields Open in Oahu. Morgan Pressel is only two back after a great round of 65. Pressel is playing more consistently this year and is showing up on or near the leaderboard more often than last. If she can get her emotions in check, then she’ll definitely be a force on the LPGA tour.
Also, is it just me, or does it seem that when the Golf Channel is broadcasting LPGA tournaments, all it takes is for Prammanasudh to sniff the leaderboard, and she gets tons of tv time. I started noticing this last year and towards the end of the year, it seemed that the Golf Channel was almost seeking her out when she wasn’t in contention. Maybe her father sits on the board of the directors of the Golf Channel?
