I'm going to be watching the final round live all afternoon.

Let's use this thread to chat about it, live, while it's happening.

I'd love to see Michelle pull it out. I think that Lexi will hit some loose shots today, and it can cost her. But I still can't predict a winner. I do hope Michelle is a teeny bit more aggressive with her putts today. She left many just short yesterday, and they'd have had a chance to go in. I'm not saying she can run them five feet past, but get them to the hole at least.

I think one of the two of them have about an 85% chance of winning.

I'd rather watch the ladies today then the fellas but I don't think I'm going to be able to pick it up over here in Kuwait. We shall see if I can locate an internet feed that is showin it. I think it's great that the ladies have a compelling final day that is more compelling than the men for a change.

Sure, I'll watch live and participate in the thread.

I just hope Michelle or Lexi wins. Fingers crossed we get a good duel.

It seems like with Michelle it'll come down to her putter. Usually I don't make that generalization about a pro, but with her, it's probably a true statement. Not that her full swing is perfect or anything, but if I had to bet on what would fall apart for her today, it'd be missing must make par putts within 6 feet, or squandering makable birdie chances.

Michelle Wie has an awesome swing. She was really great to watch yesterday.

Speaking of swings; did you guys see the divots that Lexi Thompson was taking?!?! They were huge!

Yea I kind of fear for her left wrist in the long term. But Tiger used to swing his wedges that way too IIRC, when he was young.

Still, yea... you'd think eventually she'd have to shallow that out.

Definitely. She must be super duper strong to be able to power through like that.

And they're off!

Wie with a solid drive off the first. Stinger 3W.

Lexi hits driver… gets a good bounce off the right edge into the right side.

Does anyone else kind of like Terry Gannon? Maybe I'm forever biased because he was on that '83 Wolfpack team, but he does genuinely seem far less annoying than, for example, the likes of Tom Abbott. Although, I guess anyone would.

He seems fine. I couldn't care less about basketball.

Kidding, no one is that wacky.

32 yard difference between their second shots. Michelle has a PW in though so it's not like she's hitting 6I while Lexi gets to hit a 9I or something. 25 feet.

Lexi from 103 now. Big divot as you've come to expect. Half as far away as Michelle.

I used to like Tom Abbott, but he just seems cheesier now. Could be me, of course.

The 32 yards pays off as Lexi birdies the first while Michelle taps in for par.

    • So no joke, last evening post work nine must have been the craziest side I've ever played: Bogey, double, double, par, birdie, birdie, birdie, double, birdie. Two gimme birdies, one 15 footer and one bonus bomb from prolly 35 feet on no. 9. Full disclosure, it's a super easy course when greens are running at an 8 with easy welcoming pins. Still, a couple of firsts there. Driver freed me up starting the fourth hole. Anyway, driver notes: 1) anti left left hand grip. 2) no structural bind on hands/grip. 3) left shoulder HAS to get up to chin with humerus completely detached from chest and shoulder socket (feel) Big game tomorrow, aiming to break 80.
