NELLY KORDA BECOMES NO 1 with a Putting average of 30..!?
For the first time in her career, Nelly Kordahas reached No. 1 in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings following her win at the 2021 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. She becomes the third American to sit atop the Rolex Rankings and surprisingly she did it with a Putting average of 30.
This is quite surprising not so when you consider par5s double eagle on round4 (see above) overall scoring 11 under on the par5s assuming she must have reached most of them in two with two putts!
The SwingScore is a innovative/original data from CaddiePlayer.
Nelly Korda 64,5 SwingScore is outstanding and explain more/better why she reached n.1
“Reaching World No. 1 has always been a goal of mine, I couldn’t have done this without so much support from my family, my caddie, my sponsors and my entire team, not to mention all the fans who support me every week."
I got my Day8 test Negative and Day10 theory quarantine is behind but I am still anxious about the overall situation of variant XYZ...What about you?
Last time I was on Tour as a free traveler/coach was back in 2019 for the Dubai Final Race. Seems an eternity ago... Thanks to CaddiePlayer Solutions as well the Internet I could still be virtually "Connected" to the World of Golf Tour but nothing can be compare to be on site at an life event.
Gladly behind all the Covid hassle restrictions/rules/administratives/bubbles I got my "Elite Sport Exemption" status, successfully completed my online education module on Rapid Antigen/Lateral Flow testing and could be back where I can deliver the best of my abilities (In Trevose Caddie and Coach to CaddiePlayer Legends Tour's Andre Bossert).
Coincidently I made my return at the rebranded LegendsTour part of the European Tour Age over50 events.
It was nice to see again all the Legends (Ian Woosnam and co) I use to cheer/admire whenever they would play The SwissOpen at my home course Crans sur Sierre.
I found the LegendsTour new format Alliance Pro/Am a great concept giving the opportunity to share game/friendship as well getting some preciouse tips. And what great satisfaction you get when you received such wonderful message:
"I cannot tell you how much fun we had. You were the best partner I could have wished for and thank you for giving up so much of your time to make it such a great experience for us."
Thanks to Andre Bossert his playing partner Billy (quoted above)and all others there who contribuated greatly to our back on tour week.
CaddiePlayer is pleased to be associate with the 2021 #WomensGolfDay location at Queen Margaret University Edinburgh.
Together with our Founder Stéphane Barras we have set up a few initiative to encourage more women to play golf. We invite you to post and #WomensGolfDay #QMUGS & #CaddiePlayer from your social media.
"This is just an incredible feeling because I just believed that it was possible but yet everything was saying it wasn't. I hope that others find that inspiration. There's no reason why you can't accomplish your goals at an older age. It just takes a little more work."
#LessBogeys makes T2Green stats N.1 and a Dream comes True
With one bogey onlyRichard Bland wins the 2021 Betfred British Masters play off at Belfry from a second shot tough lie Bland's strike a perfect 5 wood over Migliozzi's 9 irons followed by a 3 putts.
One bogeys over 72 holes is that a world record? Not really as in 1974 Lee Trevino won the "Greater New Orleans Open" bogey free. What was a record is that Richard Bland becomes European Tour's oldest winner and he did it with a negative Strokes Putting Gained ranking 90th at -0.69!
Richard Bland quote:
"I don’t quit. Even if I’m having a bad day - you might be frustrated by it - but you never throw the towel in because you never know in this game what’s round the corner."
