PGA Tour – World Golf Championships-HSBC, China – Sunday 11/6 – Martin Kaymer Wins by 3 strokes

November 6th, 2011 • • 0 comments • Related • Filed Under

Sunday November 6, 2011 – World Golf Championships-HSBC, Sheshan International Golf Course, Shanghai, China
 

Martin Kaymer Wins by 3 strokes. The 26 year old German plays on the European Tour although he does have a house in Scottsdale, Arizona. In 2010, Kaymer won the PGA Championship to become the second German to win a PGA Tour major, the other being Bernhard Langer.

"In November 2011, Kaymer won his first WGC title at the WGC-HSBC Champions event in Shanghai, China. Kaymer entered the final round trailing Fredrik Jacobson by five strokes. He shot a final round 9-under 63 to take the title by three strokes from Jacobson. After parring his opening six holes, Kaymer then preceded to birdie nine of the remaining twelve holes on the way to victory, including four straight birdies at the start of the back nine. This was the biggest comeback win ever in the history of the WGC events. It was also the lowest final round by a WGC winner ever, topping a 64 set by Hunter Mahan in 2010. In winning, Kaymer became the 10th player to have won both a major and a WGC event. The win took Kaymer back to World number four." (Wikipedia)

Yani Tseng wants to play against the men, Shin in Sophmore slump

November 5th, 2011 • • 0 comments • Related • Filed Under

The leading golfer on the LPGA Tour, Yani Tseng, has expressed a desire to play a tournament on the PGA Tour. Tseng Tseng is the world’s No. 1 female player and winner of 7 LPGA Tour events this year. In fact, Tseng is the youngest female golfer with 10 or more wins. And though Tseng was born at the end af the 1980's (1989), she is the only female golfer born in the 1980's with 10 or more wins.

In 2008 Jiyai Shin, Korea, was non-member of the LPGA to win a major since Laura Davies won the U.S. Women's Open in 1987 and she won 3 tournaments that year. Those three wins allowed shin to beome a LPGA Tour member in 2009 and she won 4 tournaments in 2009.

In 2010, Shin became the World Number 1 ranked women's golfer, replacing Lorena Ochoa. And now, Yani Tseng has achieved that mark, number 1 Lady golfer in the world.

I think this will be a great rivalry if both ladies stay healthy. After all, November 7, 2010 on the LPGA of Japan Tour in the Mizuno Classic, Shin beat Tseng by 2 strokes. Her swing has been errant this year, but she will get the groove back.

Note from Wikipedia: In 2004 at age 16, Shin's mother was killed in a car accident. Her younger brother and sister were seriously injured and spent nearly a year in a hospital. Her mom's death insurance money funded the beginning of her golf career. Shin currently owns a home in Atlanta, Georgia, where she lives with her brother, stepmother, and father

PGA Tour 2011 Money List – Oct 30 – Tiger Woods outside the bubble

November 1st, 2011 • • 0 comments • Related • Filed Under

Here is the PGA Money list of the Top 200 golfers on the PGA Tour. The Top 125 at the end of the year get their Tour Card for 2012. John Merrick, Sunghoon Kang, Tom Pernice, Jr., Matt Bettencourt, Arjun Atwal, Angel Cabrera are the most vulnerable. The players close to getting in are: Rod Pampling, D.J. Trahan, Bobby Gates, Roland Thatcher, and Tiger Woods.

I have to believe that Tiger has enough exemptions to get into any tournament he wants, but I would like to see him win a Fall tournment. right now, tiger has played 9 tourneys and made 7 cuts. Tiger has had 2 Top 10 finishes and 3 Top 25 finishes. Compared to last year, has a little better scoring average 70.77 this year to 71.07 last year. Tiger is 56th in the world and he has earned $660,238     this year. Tiger definitely needs to play, although he is not playing in the HSBC Champions in Shanghai, China this year.
