I originally planned to check in occasionally to see how Annika's quest for the Grand Slam would go. But I've gotten hooked to see how well Wie can do. She's currently leading at even par. Pretty insane for a 15 year old, even if she is supposed to be a phenom. In fact there are two amateurs in the top 5. Pretty good golf to watch. I think it's the first time I've ever watched a women's tournament.

Whatever you need to say to convince yourself :p. Yeah, Gulbis definitely isn't hard on the eyes lol. And Wie well she's 15 so I could probably go to jail for saying anything more lol. She's an attractive young woman. And friggin TALL! She's 6'2"-3" they were saying during the coverage.

hmm, i've never really heard her talk or anything....so i guess i don't have that opinion. was there something inparticular that she did that i happened to miss? the only thing i can remember was that her caddy (her dad maybe?) walked across someone's line once during a tournament...

well what a finish.

one thing that makes me wonder....why are all the women pro veterans getting schooled by these amateurs?

Different stylings. These new comers are much like the kids of today.....their bodies are reaching maturity at a much earlier time in their life allowing them to spend more time working on their power game.

Missed it because I was busy doing helping dad with home improvements (so to speak) but WOW what a fall Wie had. Worst round of the day. And she was pretty much done after the front nine. Considering Annika was already that far back I bet ratings dropped dramatically after that. ONE person under par for the day. They had a tougher Sunday than the men did last week lol.

but that doesn't really apply to the mens game. amateurs on the men side consistently get schooled, week in and week out. i don't really know the layouts of these courses, but maybe there's something about them that helps the power and aggressiveness these young girls have....

cuz on the mens side, the power and aggressiveness the rookies have usually gets them in trouble...

      Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • Until Dawn 2 revealed featuring new cast, new story, and new developer

      All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.

      New dev usually means more trash. I also despise that they censored the 1 remake.
