[NiceBallz | Golf blog, reviews, commentary and humor] Pressel Hates to Lose. In other news: Water is wet.: She’s at the Canadian Open this week according to the field listing on the LPGA site.  But maybe she’s tired of doing interviews, or maybe some media are simply tired of writing about Korean golfers winning yet another tournament on the LPGA.  We hope it’s the former.  While stories on Pressel, Gulbis, Creamer, Kerr and others are all well and good, barring any new, news they are also played out.  Stories on M.J. Hur or other less familiar players on the LPGA may not be as obvious on the surface, but they could be as interesting if the media who have the access also showed a desire to dig deeper than the obvious when considering story lines.
