Three in a row...sounds impressive so far. But I imagine she's got about 190 yards approach on this one, right?

Teacher, thank you for the play by play, but I think the correct terminology would be "makes par".....carry on....

What people don't seem to get is that Annika can make the cut, or miss badly. She is an elite golfer. Just not as elite as the men on the tour.

For example, if Tiger plays out of his mind here, he could shoot a 65, but if he stinks he could hit an 80. Annika, if she plays out of her mind can hit a 70, but could also hit a 87. She could potentially have a better round than Tiger, but odds are she won't. Odds are she won't make the cut, but she has the potential to do so if everything goes perfect.

I'll predict bogey on 12th.

At 433, it's longer than 10

10th (par 4, 404 yds): On the fairway twice, birdie putt is short, hits par.
11th (par 5, 609 yds): On the fairway all three shots, birdie putt is short, hits par.
12th (par 4, 443 yds): On the fairway, second shot on the rim grass of the green!

But the commentators have noted that she's already made one rookie mistake... she's wearing white pants in muddy conditions.

They just said the cut could be below par! Lowest for this tourney is even par, highest is 8 over.

Stewart Cink (who is FR 'Timesink's' cousin I believe) is now leading at -2

the leader is only -2!

And that would be after 2 or 3 holes?

To be honest, I'm not into golf. I think pro golf is fairly easy, in that when you put, you don't have to shoot through a castle, shoot around corners, and they don't put those cups all around the hole.

In any case, It would seem fairly simple to me, that in order to be fair, the LPGA start allowing men to play. Only fair.

That's my high school friend, Aaron Barber in the middle (with the perfect swing form).

I'm suffering from the overload at Tourcast -- as updates are provided, I would appreciate any Barber info as well. Thanks ---
