So I'm trying to put these golf articles on my wall but they aren't very readable in this format. Sorry about that! If you're interested, I included a link to my blog and they are much easier to read there. http://christianfav.wordpress.com/2013/04/22/rhodes-to-victory/ |

Rhodes To Victory Oklahoma State's Cowgirl golf team won its eighth Big 12 Championship on Sunday with a two-stroke victory at The Harvester Golf club in Rhodes, Iowa. This is OSU's second victory on the year, and it comes in a season in which the team never placed outside the top 10. Coach Allan Bratton brought the championship home in just his second season at the helm. This is great." Bratton said. "I talked to my team about how pleased I was with them all week. We are very happy to get this win. This is the expectation at Oklahoma State." The Cowgirls were led by Kelsey Vines, who finished tied for fifth place with a scorecard of 79-72-75 to go 10-over-par through 54 holes. Vines was named to the all tournament team, along with teammates Julie Yang, Jayde Panos and Josephine Janson. Lauren Falley also contributed to the effort, improving 12 spots from the first round to finish tied for 17th place. "The strength of our team is our depth and that's exactly how it played out this weekend," Bratton said. "We had five players who were playing well, while most of the teams were riding one or two players who were playing well. Having four of our players in the top 10 was nice to see, that was really something. [Lauren Falley's] last two rounds were really helpful for us, too." The first round of competition was a struggle for all teams, as harsh weather elevated the scores. Temperatures in the low 20s combined with 25 MPH winds to create great skiing weather, but the Cowgirls kept the masks in the bags and avoided the trees as they got within one shot of Texas Tech's 28-over-par lead. "We did a great job that day after rallying after a poor start," Bratton said. "I learned from Coach Holder a long time ago that less is usually more in golf when you're coaching. You never know what might help out there, whether it's a pep talk or a little bit of advice or being their cheerleader here and there." The second round brought better weather and far lower scores. The Cowgirls held on to the second spot, finishing 1-over-par on the day and just a stroke behind Baylor with 18 holes to play. Yang carried the team through the first two rounds before a challenging final round landed her in a tie for seventh. Her performance of 76-72-79 was strong enough to give her team a lift in the early rounds, and it was eventually enough to lift the trophy. There were certain holes that were key holes because of the wind," Bratton said. "I got to watch Julie [Yang] a little and she did a good job with some of those." As great as it is, this weekend's accomplishment is only next weekend's motivation. The next match on the schedule is the Bedlam Cup. The raucous rivalry between the Cowgirls and the Sooners will take place at Karsten Creek in Stillwater on April 27. It's a one-day event and it will be free for all students. This is the only time fans can catch the Cowgirls competing in Stillwater this year. After that, the Cowgirls will move on to the NCAA Championship tournament beginning May 21. |

Rhodes, Iowa-- The first round of the Big 12 Women's Golf Championship is in the books and Oklahoma State finds itself in second place, a shot behind the Texas Tech Red RaidersThe 17TH ranked Cowgirls shot 317 as a team, which translates to a 29-over-par, not the kind of round that wins championships. But Friday's weather was nowhere near pleasant, and the result was a day filled with bogeys and doubles across the leaderboard. The nine teams battled unpleasant, rainy weather at the Harvester Golf Club in Rhodes, Iowa. It's a popular course among college and professional golfers alike, and OSU's coach Alan Bratton was excited to introduce his team to a new, challenging course. "It's a really nice course that we haven't played yet," Bratton said. "On the women's side, the conference allows the site of the tournament to rotate among the schools, so it's good to see different golf courses for this championship." Bratton warned his team of nasty weather, but said he addressed it as an opportunity for the team to rise above the competition "We are a tough team, and we the girls have played through bad weather before," he said. "They played in it and won, so I know they know how to get it done. In times like that, you want to make sure the team learns that this is an opportunity to get tougher. I could see it playing to our advantage." The Cowgirl who responded best to the challenge was freshman standout Julie Yang, who came in tied for third place at 4-over-par. Yang double bogeyed No. 2, as did 23 of the 45 golfers, but was able to recover with a stretch of par, par, birdie in the next three holes. Kelsey Vines, the team leader throughout the season, finished 7-over-par and took sole possession of 8th place. Two double bogeys crippled her opening round, but the senior has turned slow starts into trophy heists twice this season already. Josephine Janson shot 8-over-par to come in right behind Vines in 9th place. Also, Jayde Panos entered the clubhouse tied for 24th place, and Lauren Falley shot 13-over-par, finishing in 34th place. The Cowgirls will be grouped with Baylor and the leader, Texas Tech as the second round begins Saturday at 11:40 a.m. |

I like how belly putters aren't going to be outlawed, but the way you have to use them will be. What will we see the belly putter used for now? I like their potential as stirring tools for 50 gallon drums.. |

Holy Zits, Batman. Lydia Ko is incredible. Seriously, what 15 year old beats out a field of 145 professional playing for hundreds of thousands of dollars and acts like the only thing awaiting her at the end of the round is a friendly handshake? |
