Very cool.  For anyone interested, she should come on air tomorrow about 11:00am.

Another wake up call for those who want to turn pro too.  At age 14, her hcp index is +3.8.  For some perspective, my personal best on the course is 76, for a differential of 3.2.  That's 7 full strokes above her index...  :-O

Nice! I wish her well. There is a 14 year old playing the Ana Inspiration LPGA Major this week. She played along side Michelle Wei. Maybe we will see Mimi next year.

It is just amazing that level of talent regardless of age.    I'm impressed with her motivation, drive and ambition.   Super cool.

Damn, second place overall.

Second in driving (248 yards!), 3d in chipping, but 6th in putting, the result of a poor first putt.  

All these kids are very impressive though.  Not just their golf, but their overall character and maturity.

Congrats to them all.

The 14-15 year old winner is my stepson's best friend. Yeah he has only been golfing for a few years and already shoots under par. He made varsity golf team as a freshman in North Scottsdale which has a ton of good players.

I was watching the re-run last night saw Mimi absolutely crush her drive, you could tell the crowd was impressed by her power.  I was very impressed by the composure these kids have, they walk right up and smack a drive down the grid with a big smile.  Its such a great event and its nice to see these competitors having fun.

      I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.

      Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.

      Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
