but its fun to see, ohn is outdrived every time. . .but she can putt.
If i was a FPO player. . take the drivers out of the bag....play safe. . .and do everything you can to be a good putter
Don't sell Ohn short, she is a good driver also. An all around good player.but its fun to see, ohn is outdrived every time. . .but she can putt.

She does not throw far, but she can place her drives. . and most of the time thats better than trowing farDon't sell Ohn short, she is a good driver also. An all around good player.
Looking at Ohns round:
She birdys the 3 shortest par 3. . .she pars the longer par 3s
She birdys 3 of the par 5s- - if you can throw 270ft you can reach those baskets in 3 throws
And she bogeys the two longest par 4
So it feel like you dont really need much distance...just play smart, stay safe and make your putts
Is this your first sport?I don't understand why some people on this board root against some players or outright celebrate when other players are doing poorly.
The importance of putting in FPO simply cannot be understated. It is THE separator, no question about it, given how much shorter the layouts are. Even Kristen, with how good she has been off the tee the last few years, wouldn't have won anywhere near as much without putting really, really well herself.Very odd round in FPO. . strong F9 from KT then it all went sideways
Kind of strange that a injured +45y old can outplay the best young players in a sport
It's actually the opposite. The years Nathan won he would have won in this format with his scores. In past years players got infinite strokes; they didn't play early rounds so had no chance of missing the Semis or quarters. Also for fan experience, not seeing the top pros for 2 days limited the reach of the coverage. This year there were a number of players in the 20s in seeding make the top 12. More than previous years, so actually more chances for a Nathan Queen type winner.It's like they are trying to prevent things like Nathan Queen winning from happening. Boo.
In the past players got infinite strokes, they moved right to the quarters and semis. This is far betterI get the concept of trying to reward those who've played the best all season , but not sure "free strokes" below par is the best way to do that.
That said, I can't blame top seeds for using the first round or two to really push the envelope on aggressive play, because as you pointed out, it's pretty low risk in their case.
Given that everyone who makes the finals is on a level playing field when the scores reset, having a good idea of just where you can push it, and where you can't, could very well make a difference in final standings.
With the kind of money they're playing for, every notch up the leader board makes a difference.
$$$$ talks.

Yeah, I think Ohn shines on courses like Nevin because she is the best in the field at managing her game. Kristin is really good at it too, but her extra distance might be a double edged sword if she isn't hitting her lines perfectly. Ohn seems to take shots when they are in her favor, never seems to get too greedy, can shape shots incredibly well, and makes her putts.Looking at Ohns round:
