I visited a golf course that I haven’t played in some time although it’s my home course. Maple Moor has been undergoing a renovation since Billy Casper Golf took it over last year. It really hasn’t improved at all. In spite of the soggy fairways (this was one of their biggest problems…drainage!) and very weedy grounds I did really well today. You see I haven’t played golf in two weeks nor did I visit a driving range in over a week. I was a bit tight and didn’t expect much of myself. That could be why I scored so well! I noticed ...

Annika Sorenstam shows her finesse at Bighorn Golf Club after defeating 19 top golfers on the LPGA tour. At the Samsung World Championship Annika Sorenstam quietly climbed the leaderboard while all eyes were fixed upon young phenom Michelle Wie. Sunday confirmed Annika’s right to sit atop the LPGA throne while the remainder of the pack stood eight strokes behind.

As Sorenstam strode confidently along the fairways and greens of the Canyons Course others like Michelle ...

Annika Sorenstam, Paula Creamer and Natalie Gulbis sure have their work cut out for them today. Michelle Wie is hot on the trail of the top female golfers in the world and she’s only sixteen!

Okay so Annika may NOT slip up today…it’s just a prediction. As I’m watching the Samsung right now I notice that Michelle Wie has turned up the pressure and is now in double digits ...

I was fortunate to get out of work early with my husband on Friday. We headed over to Saxon Woods Golf Course for a quick nine. Even though the forecast said rain I figured that it’s just as important to hone my skills in bad weather as in good so we decided to see how the elements affect the score, swing, mood and all other factors. Barry was on his best behavior (c’mon women, you know what I mean). It wasn’t raining yet but there was a steady fog creeping in and we could just feel the dampness in the air but ...
