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...

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
