Ah, San Francisco, the GGB, Alcatraz, Lombard street and then that's Marin I think. Woods did the same in New York to Moby. Unfortunately, can't find it.

Few golfers have had better runs than the one that has swept Ko, 17, to the top of the world rankings. She enters the women’s first major, the ANA Inspiration at Mission Hills Country Club, with a string of 28 consecutive competitive rounds under par. It is one shy of the L.P.G.A. record held by Annika Sorenstam, a 10-time major winner.

Ko has never missed a cut on the L.P.G.A. Tour as an amateur or professional, a Tiger Woods-like streak that reached 48 starts last week at the Kia Classic. She went on to finish third for her fourth top-3 showing in six 2015 tour starts. She has 10 straight tour finishes in the top 10 dating to October.

“I am amazed how well Lydia is playing,” Sorenstam, a Golf Channel analyst, said last week on a teleconference call. She added: “I watch her play and she’s just very consistent in every area. I think the strongest part is between her ears. She just has this composure about her, which she does so well under pressure.”

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.
