Last year, Michelle was using the short putter… this year, Michelle is using the long putter…It’s going to be interesting and exciting to find out how Michelle does with the long putter....

And I tell you Wie Nation, I’m a little nervous myself….
But, I think she will do quite well....Maybe win it....

Hello Wie Nation:

One and a half days and counting….
We got a great pairing for Michelle…She’s paired with Suzann Pettersen….going off in twosomes…four spots before the last group…Brittany is two spots ahead of Michelle…while Yani, Na Yeon, Gal and Seo come after Michelle and Suzann…
Michelle tees off at 9:07pm pst…Wed…15th. Feb..
No round two tee times…
While Suzann didn’t do too well last week…Suzann seems to get up when playing with Michelle…and as I remember from the Solhiem Cup, Michelle tweeted, “losing sucks!” ; and she may want to make a statement while paired with Suzann….
Last week, Brittany missed a short birdie putt that would have won…Seo missed a short par putt that would have given her a win…Na Yeon didn’t play…Yani’s arm is hurting…but, she kept coming back in last week’s tournament…the ladies are going to be fired up…Going to be a good and exciting tournament…

In the Bangkok area:
It’s going to be hot with high humidity…
Thru. and Fri….Clear.
Sat…60% chance of thunder, lightning and rain…
Sun…40% chance of thunder, lightning and rain..
Can’t get the Chonburi weather report…

The weather shouldn’t affect the tape delay broadcast….But then again…It’s the Golf Channel…and if I remember correctly from last year, they couldn’t get live golf on tape delay…

TV Times:
9:30am-11:30am…PST…Thru. Feb. 16th.
9:30am-11:30am…PST…Fri. Feb. 17th.
12 noon-3:00pm…PST…Sat. Feb. 18th.
12 noon-3:00pm…PST…Sun. Feb.19th.

A reminder…be sure to get your scores in early in BoolaBoss’s contest…
Thailand time zone is 15 hours ahead of Pacific time zone….

Go Michelle go…

GREAT information bobawiefan.........I think Michelle will do well this week as well.......in round one against Suzann.........remember how well Michelle played against Suzann in the Solheim Cup singles?..........I am almost certain that they repair after each round.....that's why there are no round 2 tee times.......also I think we get an extra half hour TV time on Sunday.........it's 12 to 3:30 p.m.............

It’s great to see the ladies back in action. I have a special spot in my heart for the LPGA’s Thailand stop. Thanks to the LPGA players who donated for the auction for flood relief. Love how Paula clarifies that she was in a wedding last weekend but not her wedding! At around the 5 minute mark, they ask Michelle how she feels about graduating from Stanford.
