Bits and Pieces

-Yesterday's all day rain - it's been forever since that happened around here.  And no golf on a Tuesday afternoon?  Something not right about that...

-The lady golfers are taking their season to the very end to decide who is the year's best.  From lpga.com:

Races too close to call; LPGA Tour Championship to decide Rolex Rankings No.1, Rolex Player of the Year, Vare Trophy and LPGA money title

And those in contention: 

Six different LPGA Tour players - Jiyai Shin (South Korea), Suzann Pettersen (Norway), Cristie Kerr (United States), Yani Tseng (Taiwan), Na Yeon Choi (South Korea) and Ai Miyazato (Japan) - are fighting to the end for the most coveted awards on the LPGA Tour. The battle for Rolex Rankings No. 1, Rolex Player of the Year, Vare Trophy and the LPGA money title will culminate at the season-finale LPGA Tour Championship at Grand Cypress Golf Club in Orlando, Florida, December 2-5, 2010. 

Global tour with five different countries represented in the six contending for the trophies.  The only country with more than one - South Korea.  To be expected, what with all the great lady golfers that country has produced in the last decade.  


-Jim Furyk - POY.  I agree.


-More lady stuff:  UCON lady basketballers won last night, beating Baylor by a single point.  Their winning streak now stands at 80.  Pretty impressive stuff.  Do they get to 88?  That's the record held by you know whom and snapped by you know whom, right?  Answer here if you're having a little memory problem this morning.


-Heading to the golf course for a walk.  Was out there just after five last night - walking in the rain, wondering if the grass was going to green up before winter set in.
