Last weekend I was in Rancho Mirage CA playing in the last tee time before they closed the course for the first LPGA Major of the season.  What a beautiful course in top notch condition.  Too bad the wind was blowing 40 miles per hour.  Made the course severely tough!!  Watching the event on the Golf Channel this week helps me see how I should have played some of the holes!!  Canadian Stephanie Sherlock is in the field after a solid performance in the Kia Classic in LA the previous week. Alena Sharp is having a good start as well.  Hopefully Poppy's Pond is a refeshing end for the great player to win this event on Sunday!
