Honda LPGA Thailand 2012 Rd two

[bobawiefan]

Hello Wie Nation:

The plus or minus for my predictions has risen from 50% to a minus 75%…With the introduction of the short putter, the plus or minus for assuming facts not in evidence is a plus 95%…leaving me with a credibility rate of a plus 5%…I had no idea Michelle was going to use the short putter. :oand
But, when you get bucked off a horse…you get right back on and see where it goes…
Therefore, I thought I would do a comparison play by play with Sandra Gal…At least for nine holes
Anyway, they tee off in about 15min.

Up first, 506 yd par 5.
Rd 1

Hello Wie Nation:

Michelle played solid golf on the back nine after going even par on the front nine.
For round two, michelle was a minus 4.
After two rounds, michelle is a -1...as of now tied for 22nd. Up from T55.
Big jump…Way to go Michelle…Way to go…
Michelle had birdies on the par 5 10th, par 4 13th, par 4 15th, and par 5 18th.
Totals;
12 pars….5 birdies…1 bogey.
Par 3’s…..3 pars……0 birdies….1 bogeys….poor
Par 4’s…..8 pars……2 birdies….0 bogeys….good…could be better. but 2 birdies and no bogeys on the par 4's but pleased
Par 5’s…..1 pars……3 birdies….0 bogeys….excellent…almost perfect.
I see no sense in doing further comparison play by play.
Will post michelle’s 3rd round results after she finishes tomorrow.

Great work Bob. Since Michelle's start was 8pm my time here in the North East I decided to stay up and follow her round online. Very happy when that first birdie appeared!
So I see this morning there is a weather delay and the players at the top changed. I'll be looking to see if she's still using the same putter today. That is if we get to see her!
With her new home course she's in a position to get some help with her putting from fellow members and I hope that happens. That would be a nice change from what has been happening so far.The putter is only thing holding her back IMO.

Thanks bobawiefan! Great round by Michelle after that 75 yesterday. The greens seem to be very tricky, lots of players missing short putts.

Michelle was using same putter in second round. Very interesting, going back to a short putter.
