That is the most ignorant thing I've read. You obviously don't understand match play. Her score is not based on the amount of strokes per round.
Further more, it will be about 20 to 30 degrees warmer than when they shot the show and I wouldn't call it soft, more like wet. Did you not the the rain during the round. Get a clue.

Just because it was match play doesn't mean you can't add up the amount of strokes she took, afterall you do need to take strokes for match play to work..or did you forget about that one. Any golfer attempting to be a pro should be able to shoot around par in the conditions they played in, despite it being a little bit colder, and she can't do that. I don't care if it's wet or soft, she should be able to handle it.

Didn't forget about anything. It is the cumulative strokes on one hole not the entire round. Besides, can you tell me what she shot that round? You can't because it wasn't an entire round, she won on the 17th hole. No one knows what would have happened on the 18th had they played the 18th.

As for the conditions, look at some of the score from the PGA in wet and cold conditions earlier this year, look at the results from teh windy conditions from the MCI Herritage.

There wasn't a single contestant on that show that could've played better.

Around par or not, she played good enough enough to win last night.
Everyone needs to quite whining about Danielle winning last night and get over themselves.

Thats because all of them stunk. Danielle proved she was better than the other 9 contestants, but does that mean she can come close to making a cut at an LPGA event? She made less than $900 on the Futures Tour! She'll get blown out of the water at all 4 tournaments.

She barley broke 80? If you look at the Golf Channel web page it gives the final scorecard. Danielle was 2 over after 17, Pam was 3 over. In less than favorable conditions, plus the course will be in much better shape for an LPGA event. Danielle was also a finalist in the LPGA qualifying school in 2003. I bet she broke eighty (several times) then. Does anyone actually think that if they played the last hole she would card a 10? You people need to get a clue.

Dan's best year on Futures:2001, Events:11, Best Finish:T34, Cuts Made:4 ,Total Earnings: $838, Stroke Avg:76.73.
I played twice on a course monday after LPGA event. There is no way that Futures has the same setup as LPGA tournaments. IMHO she won't even sniff 80.
You're mighty angry young man six_over. We're just talking about the sport we love, there is no reason to get personal with your comments - if you get my "clue"...

She was over par in some of the easiest conditions possible. She didn't have the length to go for any of the par 5s, despite the fact that they were playing the up tees, and the course is pretty short to begin with.

There was no wind. The greens were receptive.

It's my opinion that she won't break 80. She would have had to get a 0 on the last hole for her round to be anywhere near the level that the average LPGA Tour player probably would have shot the same day.

It's an opinion. Chill out.
