Yeah for Morgan. Too bad Michelle wasn't in the field. I would have really liked to see what would have happened, but I am sure we'll get plenty of those opportunities in the future. By the way, I'm not a big Morgan fan; however, since Ty Votaw shot her down for full time status exemption (if she qualifies), what's the deal with all the golf pundits speculating that Michelle will tun pro? She's not even 16, so how in the would could they grant her an exemption and not Morgan? It seems like it's a no-brainer, but these knuckleheads keep talking about it like it probably will happen. If it does happen than I am all the way on Morgan's side with that injustice.

"Going Pro" is not the same thing as "being allowed to join the LPGA Tour." A five-year-old can "turn pro." All you have to do is declare that you're a pro, after all. But being allowed to join the LPGA is different.

As a "pro" (or an amateur, as you've seen) but not an LPGA member, your earnings don't count on the money list and you can only take six or seven exemptions. Pressel's has a lot to learn about behaving in a mature fashion, I think. And Michelle Wie still has a lot to learn about winning.

    • Day 22 (12 Feb 25) - Short session with 7i into the net in the backyard.  Was not the best session - struggled in getting the face squared up.  Took a few steps back and did a reset.  Better contact second time around. 
    • Nope, and a bit too expensive for what I usually spend on clothing. Not sure if these pants are the kind where they are like business casual but also can be worn while doing athletic stuff (like working out).  I do own a pair of pants from VRST, and like them a lot. They got a business casual look, but very stretchy. I forgot my gym shorts to volleyball on Monday. I had these pants on and had no issues. You can literally go from work to the gym. . 
    • 100%.  Currently, it takes me several shots of various progressions to make my brain even trust that it will work.  It is so opposite from the feelings I have had for years.  And forget about adding any speed at the moment. That is just a recipe to fall back on the old habit
    • I haven't either. But there doesn't seem to be any reason why at least the pants would create any issues.
