but don't look now...........in her rear-view mirror, the recently forgotten - at least by me - Lydia Ko... minus 2 thru 5 for the same score in the tourney....

but brooke bogeys #4 and #5.......... minus 3 now.

probably head down very very early sunday morning...... the "very very" just as much to beat the border line up

brooke stubs the eagle pitch - deep ugly rough - but then up/down for par on the 6th.

lydia has given up at least 1 stroke now.......... those scores moving back towards par.

Lexi's swing is really something else. There is nothing else like that follow through in golf.

Also: It's a little odd hearing Dan Hicks and Johnny Miller doing LPGA coverage.

my lexi theory is her swing comes from being 10-12 years old and trying to keep up with her elite, older brothers - at least one older brother.

sort of monstrous deloft on everything and hammering into the ground on shorter irons...... you need such perfect hand-eye for that to work. and wet conditions are very tough on it............ she's hanging in nicely today.

michelle wie 78-80.................wow

Golf Channel being Golf Channel showed her for a while yesterday. Nothing looked good, not full shots, not pitches and certainly not putting. Wie might need some time off.

Lydia Ko is just an unbelievably good putter. So impressive.

got a nice chuckle over that too.......

also, annika's comment on lexi's game: "sometimes it works....... sometimes it doesn't".......... said it like it was somewhat positive.

loving watching women play real course with poor weather......... i love watching all the tours like that.

seems like they are teeing off very early today.... brooke at 945 local time... beating the weather

raining like mad 2 hours away............. altho wasn't raining here yesterday when pouring at sahalee

ariya with early birdie

will golf channel do real coverage? or will they pretend leaders haven't teed off? i.e. contractual obligations to NBC later to show the leaders.

Should be live. NBC coverage starts at 11a PT and the last hour is on Golf Channel.

my bad... i was confused on coverage times/channels....

looks like the players were always planned to go out early. not sure this early but i would think within an hour or so.

may rethink plans to go down tomorrow............... maybe see brooke and company down in portland at the end of the month.

Brooke ................... NO!!!!!!! ............... nice call by the commentator BTW. seemed like he was wrong at first.

apparently the players were surprised at their tee times today......... wonder if that's earlier tee times or they didn't know the tee times would be early. NBC/golf channel times suggest early tee times, but did they update the TV set-top box info overnight?

It's been there since the start of the tourney. I remember seeing it and thinking "no prime time coverage Saturday".

great final round......... so impressed with Brooke's play...........

Lydia Ko though is just unbelievable. as the announcers said, how can she be consistently way inside her opponents on the green when she's 40 yards further out? hitting hybrids close
