LPGA 2009: Going Where I Have Never Gone

In my writing and broadcasting life, I've never tried to do any kind of predictive list.  I haven't said who would win majors, who would do well on the money list, or anything like that.  And when I try to predict specific events, I just fall flat on my face.  But, the contest ongoing unbeknownst to Ron Sirak between him, The Constructivist, Mulligan Stu, Bill Jempty, and Hound Dog is just too fun to not be in this year.

That said, here is my completely unscientific Top 30 for the 2009 LPGA Tour season.

Star-divide

1. Lorena Ochoa

16. IK Kim

2. Ji-Yai Shin

17. Christina Kim

18. Morgan Pressel

4. Seon Hwa Lee

19. Hee-Won Han

5. Suzann Pettersen

20. Jeong Jang

6. Yani Tseng

21. Michelle Wie

7. Angela Stanford

22. Stacy Lewis

8. Cristie Kerr

Hey

You left me out. I’m in the contest too.

wow -

everybody seems to be solidly on the Shin Train. Should be interesting to watch.

No way Wie makes the top 30 this year. (my anti-prediction) :-)

Haha

I’m sold on Shin. Last year was enough for me.

how about...

…a graphic with “the experts” across the top and their predictions all on one page ? And put it somewhere we’ll be able to get to it for the entire season.
