This, again, was complete domination by Yani. She wins by 5, with all of the pressure of playing at home in front of 20,000 .... There is no one even close to her out there. It looks like Michellew will have a lot of work to do, and, with her schedule, and her present structure, I see no way for her to ever challenge Yani. Congratulations to a great champion! The rules of this board, which I will post later today, are that you praise one player without putting down another, especially Michelle. I don't care if this is just a minor slight on Michelle. I am not playing with members here. I won't allow any player, and especially Michelle, to be denigrated at the expense of another player. No problem praising Yani. I have done so as well. But no need to pull Michelle into this, praising Yani while putting down Michelle. |

lots more pics and video on my blog: Yani Tseng Thrills Home Country Crowd By Winning 2011 Sunrise LPGA Taiwan Championship Fairways and Forehands This was the storybook ending the fans in Taiwan...and Yani fans around the world had hoped for...I know I sure did...even with my own fandom of other players, and Yani too of course, I put those aside for this week to hope for Yani to pull this one out! Always happy to see her win...but this one was special! The older woman she hugged on the way off the course in the first video was her 92-year old grandmother. Na Yeon Choi and Morgan had fun. I had once read somewhere Morgan doesn't particularly like foreign food. Nothing wrong with that...but I love Asian cuisine! Wave those TAIWAN flags! Chinese Taipei...yeesh!  |

These are the type of comments Michelle fans wanted to get away from reading. Don't know why people can't praise someone without putting down another. Anyways, Congrats to Yani! This is definitely her year. |

The concept of urging/telling/suggesting that a country not fly its own flag on its own country is absurd.
Apparently the LPGA powers don't want to "offend" the communists, but they have no problem trying to offend the people of Taiwan. That's unbelievable. Three cheers for the free Chinese to stand their ground.
