The sport kinda faded when Lorena Ochoa put away her clubs.

Hopefully Inbee Park could put a shot back into the sport. I got tired of waiting for Michelle Wie and Paula Creamer.

Paula Creamer is a fine golfer, and at least she has won unlike Wie. Personally, I have watched a lot of LPGA (golf nerd, loser) and Ai Miyazato seems like she may be something on the horizon but she falls into the trap that LPGA has set for itself: foreign born, non-English speaking, women that cannot convey any semblance of charisma or personality. Until the LPGA can do a better job branding itself for American consumers, and the economy turns around (let's face it, for sports fans the LPGA is #9 or so on priorities) the LPGA will be fun for golf fans and purists but past the backburner for casual sports fans.

2 weeks until a British Open champ is crowned.
