With the LPGA taking a one week break before resuming its schedule in Virginia, it is as good a time as any to look at some key player statistics after the first ten tournaments of the year.

Kingsmill is a pretty nice course.

Lydia the GOAT Ko's putting is not up to her usual standards. Looked better the last couple holes at least.

Gerina had a bad day. Candie Kung had a bad day. I assume Vicky Hurst had a bad day, though I don't remember seeing her except in the background.

The camera loves In Gee.

Absolute dominance from Lexi. 64/72 greens in regulation. Obviously won't be doing that every week, but I can easily see her make world #1 by the time the next major rolls around. By this week's evidence, you'd say last month's adversity has motivated her.

This week the LPGA moves to the state of Michigan for the playing of the LPGA Volvik Championship. This will be the second year for this tournament on the LPGA schedule. Last year, Ariya Jutanugarn blew away the field with a 5 stroke victory over runner-up Christina Kim.

She is a good interview, though. Lots of personality.

She is a good one. That was not even close to one of her wilder outfits.

Maybe so, maybe so. Regardless, she should have saved this outfit for Wisconsin.

Nailed it. Only T65 this week, 18 worse than the winning score.

I like this course. Not super long but plenty challenging. Plus you get greens that grow and get bumpy so it's not like every putt goes in.

Oh, and whatever I said earlier about the Golf Channel being over their fixation on Michelle Wie, I take it back.

I know she happened to be in the group with one of the leaders, but yeah, they are not over it.

I played this course about 15 years ago. I remember not being able to find the ball when it was in the rough, and I'm not even talking about the fescue either. Tough track.
