    That's a couple of really clutch wins for Lydia, winning at the home of golf is probably one of those things on the bucket list that every golfer has, so pleasing to see her win with style and composure.

      I'm off sick so watched the entire last round on replay. Great clutch golf from Ko.
      Didn't realise how liked she seems to be judging from the commentary - everyone wants to play with her, everyone respects her. Just a class act. Cheering her opponents shots - and a great acceptance speech.

      Class act.

      She's now taking two weeks off to go on a golfing holiday.

      She does seem very relaxed these days - has mastered switching off between shots and then switching on when she needs to. That approach to 17 was masterful given the rain came lashing in horizontally and there are many ways to drop shots on the road hole.

        She crossed off a couple of big goals in Paris, especially the HoF qualification which she had admitted was playing on her mind. Now she can just try to win for fun

          Such a great win for Lydia at the home of golf. Only 2 other LPGA players have achieved that so she joins an exclusive club. Alot of great comradery between the players on the LPGA compared with the PGA Tour. Many of the players that had completed their rounds a while before were there congratulating Lydia on her victory.

              Lids, Fox, and Charles might be the list

                  Women's Golf is a better watch than men's golf at the moment.

                    I’ve found this for about the last 10 years. Other than the majors and Ryder cup etc, I hardly watch the men’s golf.

                    Women’s golf is much more relatable. Plus can be very pleasant viewing at times.

                      Great stuff for Lydia!

                      I watched some pros play my course last weekend. Tees were way back. My favourite hole plays 400 yard dog leg which I drive then about a 5 iron in (on the rare time I do it right). I am a short hitter (230ish drive.

                      These blokes were driving over the trees then lob wedge on from just off.

                      The 9th is a par 4 I cannot reach in 2. They were using a Pw on their second.

                      Different gravy. Ladies golf so much more relatable.

                                    Unfortunately Foxy played himself out of the running really in the last few months with his results. Needs to find more consistency in his game. At the moment he isn't likely to play at the Masters next year as he has fallen out of the Top 50.

                                        Ryan Fox out to defend his title at Wentworth this evening. He's playing alongside Rory and Justin Rose.
                                        He's already underway and is even par through 3 holes. Another Kiwi Daniel Hiller is also in the field and he is even par through 6 holes.

                                          Heading along to this on Saturday. We are supposed to be having a bbq lunch with Ernie Els. It'll be the 3rd time this has been planned, and the last two times he's had to cancel (not a corporate thing, he's friends with a mates Dad who lives on Wentworth).

                                          Fingers crossed for 3rd time lucky.

                                          EDIT: I need to stop posting. Just been confirmed he can no longer attend. I seem be jinx'd on TSF today.
