Top 70 - April 2011
I figured the best way to get back into the blogging swing would be to present my first Top 70 list of the year. 25% of the ranking is based on the five events played so far while 75% is based on last year's performance. The number in the third column is that player's final 2010 ranking. Rookies...

Shin Wins ADT Championship; Ryan Called It
I love getting things right because it means that I get to use my favorite graphic. (Oh, and golf.com's headline says "South Korean wins ADT." Seriously.) Ji Yai Shin won the ADT Championship on Sunday by posting -2. She birdied 17 in three of four days, which would have been a feat unto...
And Now for Something Completely Different
The USGA getting called out for making a U.S. Open course too easy: Former world No. 1 Karrie Webb has slammed officials for they way they have set up the course for this week’s U.S. Women’s Open. Webb, a two-time Open champion, says the Interlachen course is playing far too easily,...
