    Never higher than 80th on the money list, two career top 10s, outside the top 200 world golf rankings...
    If you were producing a national TV broadcast, when would you put her on?

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow.

    Not to beat a dead horse but Cheyenne Woods is on a lot and is statistically doing worse than Amy. Just sayin.

    Amy shot a 2 under round today. 2 under for 2 rounds and even par is the projected cut.

    The LPGA is to hard to watch for me. I didn't know they could make golf any slower to watch. Heck sometimes I swear they follow one group and have a camera at one other hole during the whole broadcast and that is it. Tough to watch and frankly quite boring.

    I agree BisonFanatic! The format you point out is pretty much what I have seen every time also. And the announcers have been pretty dull as well. They ought to spread the coverage around a bit and try to show much more of the field every week. I watch very little due to exactly what you pointed out here, and most of what I have watched has been painful.

    Yesterday Cheyenne teed off too early to make it on tv. Not today. She finished 3 strokes off the cut but still made it on. No more dead horse beating.

    I agree that the televising of the LPGA is lacking. Lots of advertising . I guess it is better than nothing.

    Can’t disagree, but cameras and operators aren’t free... kind of a chicken and egg problem.

    Kim Kaufman is at -3 right now
    Amy is at -2
    If you spot either of these world class golfers on TV today
    You’re a world champ contender for Peekaboo.
