[Pattaya Golf Direct] Michelle Wie will play LPGA opener in Thailand: Wie will have to take time off from her studies at Stanford to play in the tournaments. She told CNN International that she plans to finish her degree in five years.

[LPGA.com News & Entertainment] News and notes for the week of November - LPGA.com: The four major champions of 2009 will also travel to The Houstonian Golf and Country Club to close out the 2009 LPGA Tour season. Florida's Brittany Lincicome (Kraft Nabisco Championship), Anna Nordqvist of Sweden (McDonald's LPGA Championship Presented by Coca-Cola), Scotland's Catriona Matthew (RICOH Women's British Open) and Eun-Hee Ji of South Korea (U.S. Women's Open) each earned their first major championship of their respective careers.

[SeoulSisters] 2009 Awards (4 of 12): Best Breakthrough « SeoulSisters: BB Song was the KLPGA’s top player in 2004 and 2005, but she somewhat faded from the spotlight in 2006, when Jiyai Shin took over the league.  Song went to Japan to play, but injuries and other issues prevented her from finishing full seasons in 2007 and 2008.  Thus, her official rookie year on that tour was not until this year, and if people had forgotten the former teen prodigy, she was quick to remind everyone what she was capable of!  She would go on to win the JLPGA’s Rookie of the Year award, one of the few Koreans to be so honored.  She did this thanks to two wins, both very important.  The first came at the Japan Women’s Open in early October, one of the JLPGA’s most important Majors.  She followed that up just a month later by winning the Mizuno Classic, the only event co-sanctioned by the LPGA and JLPGA.  That win gained Song membership on the LPGA for 2010, although it looks like she has decided to refuse that and remain on the Japanese tour.  At the Mizuno, BB collected a three shot win over a field that included some of the LPGA’s top players, including Lorena Ochoa and Jiyai Shin.

[LPGA.com News & Entertainment] Final-round notes and interviews - LPGA.com: In a week where the second-round took over 67 hours to finish and the event was cut to 54 holes, Anna Nordqvist needed just about two hours and eight holes to clinch her second-career victory on the LPGA Tour. The 22-year-old Swede carded seven birdies in a span of eight holes in the final round to earn a two-stroke victory over 2009 Rolex Player of the Year Lorena Ochoa at the LPGA Tour Championship Presented by Rolex.

[LPGA.com News & Entertainment] News for the week of September 21, 2009 - LPGA.com: As a result of becoming a Rolex First-Time Winner at the 2009 Samsung World Championship, second-year Tour member Na Yeon Choi moved up to become the 12th-ranked player in the world, while LPGA of Japan's Sakura Yokomine broke into the top-25 with her win at the Munsingwear Ladies Tokai Classic. It was a six-spot move to 22nd in the Rolex Rankings - the only system in women's professional golf, which ranks the top golfers in the world based on their performance over the past two years in sanctioned professional events.

[SeoulSisters] Hee Young Park's Thailand Odyssey « SeoulSisters: How much will her unlikely rally at this event affect Hee Young’s career, both in the short term and looking farther into the future?  She has the length (as demonstrated by that eagle) and the all around game to be great.  But has she found a way to overcome the demons that have sunk her efforts in the past?  The next time she is in contention to win, will she be able to draw on her memories of the tenacity she showed in Thailand?  Will she be able to dig down when things are going badly, and prevent that terrible round that has sunk her in the past?  Will she finally emerge from the shadows of Shin and Choi (both of whom finished just outside the top ten in Thailand) and become the star she seems capable of being?  Time will tell, but the signs are certainly good!

[LPGA.com News & Entertainment] News for the week of June 8, 2009 - LPGA.com: Last week, In-Kyung Kim earned the second career LPGA victory of her three-year Tour career at the LPGA State Farm Classic over a field that included 19 of the top 20 on the LPGA Official Money List. Finishing second to Kim was LPGA Tour and World Golf Halls of Famer Se Ri Pak - the 1998 and 2006 champion of the McDonald's LPGA Championship--who seems to be finding her rhythm as the LPGA begins the second major championship of the season.

[Thailand Golf Blog] Thailand Golf Blog: GorgeoUS Golf: The strong showing by the “Seoul Sisters” of golf in the US Open came, I think, directly from Se Ri Pak’s winning the 1998 US Open. No lady Thai golfer has reached that level, but there is a whole crop of very talented Thai youngsters coming through, one of whom might do so - notably Onnarin “Moo” Sattayabanpho, who achieved a a rare double-eagle or albatross on the par-five 11th hole of the Louisiana Pelican Classic last April, and Nontaya "Net"

With this as the dominant story, the other bylines such as South Korean wins and teenaged golfers struggling to establish themselves should have added a layer to the LPGA.

Morgan Pressel is the golfer who seems to have made a big distinction between Amjerican and South Korean when she was outraged that Michelle Wie should celbrate the victory of an South Korean over an American.
