Annika didnt have any wins last year except at the very end of the season on the LPGA tour which is very rare. She had a neck injury for a long while which, in my opinion, was the one of the main things holding her back.

How do you think she will perform this year?

If you think she will win this year, how many times?

She won on the LET towards the end of the year in Dubai. This seems a good sign that she's coming back soon.
But I don't really follow women's golf as much as I should. It's just so easy to follow the three main men's tours since they're on the same website. I need to add LPGA's site to my bookmark toolbar.

Hopefully she can turn it around again as the last few years have really brought women's golf into the foreground, but with upcomers such as Ochoa, Gulbis, Creamer, and such it should continue to grow whether Annika comes back to form or not.

What I remember the most about Annika at her most dominant is her eerily precise iron shots. The often reminded me of Tiger's iron shots in that she always seemed to hit them to the perfect position on the green.

I think that she still has wins left in her. And one more major.

I'm looking forward to seeing a healthy Annika in 2008. How great would it be if she and Ochoa go head to head this year?

Her best is behind her. Ochoa will be the one to catch from now on, I just dont see Anika being able to play on her level again. She might win a few times a year but she's got all these young players lighting it up around her and it seems like she is intimidated.. we'll see though.

Annika may have played her best golf already, but remember she was coming back from a pretty major neck injury last season. Ochoa is a great player and there is no reason to expect her to fall back to the pack. I will have to wait and see how Annika plays at the start of the season, but I would expect her to challenge for the top spot again. She keeps herself in great shape and is so consistent that I have little reason to doubt her if she is healthy. Of course that is a big if when you are talking about problems with the spine.

I agree that Annika probably won't be able to play at the level she used to, but I really doubt she is intimidated by the younger players. If anything, I think she will be more determined to prove she can still win.

Funny you say that after she fires a 67 to tie for the lead in the 2nd round.. not much of a prediction then, is it? I still stick by my words, maybe 3 wins a year but she wont dominate like in years past.. as long as Ochoa's in the field.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
