redux: Is Annika slipping?
With Tiger taking a break and not much PGA excitement until the US Open nears, my thoughts turn to the LPGA and the many interesting stories to be found on that tour. For example, I have been noticing that last year’s break-out star Paula Creamer has not been in contention in too many events (although she was still in the Top 10 on the LPGA money list before this week).
But after today, I think the story needs to be whether Annika Sorenstam is in decline. She went into today’s final round of the Florida’s Natural Championship as the leader and posted a +3 score of 75 to finish two back. (Leaderboard here.) Perhaps everyone is catching up, but today’s effort suggests she is slipping.
UPDATE: The chatter around the LPGA has picked up. As Cristie Kerr says, “Maybe it’s changing.” More here.
