Title: Everyone's favorite topic...
Post by: Aske on February 22, 2008, 04:26:07 PM
so is she reverting to an at least competitive form for 2008 or is this week just a fluke

what say you (yes, it's just a prediction)  leave all bashing/praising aside, we've beat that to death a billion times i think.

I haven't even heard her name lately.  Do you have a link to a recent story?

On a serious note this must not be my favorite topic because I'm not sure who you are referring to. I will be more than willing to offer a prediction though.


{edit} now that I've noticed this is in Golf Talk.........Annika??

Competitive form.

Too much talent to suck forever and being half an ocean away from Blow. Job. is probably helping her big time.

I assumed it was Wie, but now that I've looked at the round recap, I guess she didn't do that well.

ah yes. I never joined in the "discussions" over there.

Competitive. Agree with UB on the talent.

But to be honest, I never really got too worked up about the topic. Only a bit disappointed that she was getting some pretty shaky career advice IMO.

I did once.  Sorta.  Not necessarily about her but she was the catalyst for the thread.  Holy chit did I get hammered.  I think it was something like 287 v. 1.  Clive was even the captain of the 287 arseholes.   [sm_devil]

But I forgave him because he sings such sweet lullabies.

Did you argue that she should not be entitled to private school subsidy coupons?

I shouldn't say never. I just don't recall getting involved.

Some of the posts seemed borderline creepy to me with how intense grown men became considering the discussion centered around a teenage girl.

There was that for sure.  Even a few [sm_hump] type posts when she was 16 or so.  Yikes.  It always sprung to my mind that that's a good way to meet Mr. FBI Agent.

Maybe.  I can't remember where I stand on that one.

making a cut in a full field tourney is a step in the right direction.

I don't think there is any doubt she can compete on the LPGA tour.  I hope she does well and wins a tournament.  I know she will at least contend for a few.  Maybe all the stuff that happened last year will help her by making her focus on the LPGA tour.  And if her career becomes annika like then try to tee up with the men once or twice.  But not until she dominates the LPGA tour for awhile which she surely has the talent to do.

Saw a thing on TGC about her last night.  She plans on attending Stanford in only the fall and winter quarters.  She expects it will take 6+ years to graduate.  She'll play in the spring and summer.  Also, she says she has more time to practice now than she did in high school.  Uisce's.experiments.in.education.surrender.

Plus, she's still just a damn kid.  Amazingly talented, and accomplished, but i remember what a *8==>*head mess I was at that age.  I didn't know if I wanted to *feces* or eat applebutter.

I give her some time, and hope she has good counseling and direction.

Hopefully, you were able to distinguish between the two.
