I think Kim probably wins, because the winner gets all her travel and entry paid for on the futures tour, and Kim has played in every event on the futures tour this year.

The winner gets entries paid for the 2009 Futures tour, not the 2008 Futures tour.

I think it's 2008. The show was recorded in December or something.

winner gets

1) Tournament exemption on the LPGA Tour
2) All entry fees for the 2009 Duramed FUTURES Tour waived
3) Adams Golf endorsement contract, including $10,000 cash
4) BMW Z4 Coupe which comes with a tour of the manufacturing plant and a full day of driving with a pro instructor at the BMW Performance Center.

(they'll need the $10K cash to pay the income tax on all this stuff!)

Everything I've seen has said 2009. It was filmed in 2007, but they don't want to give away the winner.

Yep, you're right, 2009. Well that's pretty dumb. That's almost too long - the winner could give up golf by then, and only the hard-core golf fan is really gonna look up who has played x events and try to make guesses from there.

Or, in Kim's case, she could qualify for the LPGA Tour in 2009 (she's 11th on the money list right now), rendering her exemptions/paid entry fees pointless. About the only real positive is that it could give someone a year to work on a swing change or do something, so they could put their best foot forward a year later. But still, I think that's silly. If they wanted to do 2009, they could have paid their entry fees for the rest of 2008 after the show ended and then all of 2009 if necessary.

I missed the show last week but had it in the DVR. I was busy Wednesday and Thursday and out of town all weekend. I went out of my way to not find out what happened. I deleted the notices to this thread as they came into my inbox. Unfortunately this morning I turned on TGC to catch Golf Central and as I am walking into the room with my cereal to watch, the preview of the final came on. I so wanted to watch Lori get her ass handed to her. I will still try to watch tonight but it won't be the same.

I think it is dumb that the exemption is for 2009. I guess the timing is tough with tours all over the world and different schedules but why air something Spring of 2008 that will result in a spot on next years Futures Tour? Damn TV schedules.

On the other hand, it could be more exciting since you' know it's going to happen.

True, but nothing beats a first hand meltdown.

Here's what I do:

Go to meebo.com .

Log in.

Click the fourth icon from the left on the "buddy list" (it has three little faces and a bubble).

Type in "bigbreakfinale" (no quotes).

Should work.
