 |
|
I was just wondering how everyone else feels about her turning pro so young? I don't really know what the difference is between her being an amateur and a pro, and since she immediately became the highest paid woman's golfer it makes sense to me from a financial standpoint.
Also, how do you think her career will look when she's done. There's a chance she ends up like Anna Kournikova, and a number of other athletes who never lived up to expectations. Of course she could be the female Tiger Woods. As it stands right now she's not good enough to win consistently on the LPGA tour, so she has to get alot better to live up to expectations. |

She played well, and would have gotten fourth had it not been for her getting DQ'd because of an illegal drop. Officials said she dropped the ball about a foot too close to the hole from where it should have been dropped. That mistake cost her over 50k dollars. |
