Tomorrow starts the 2011 US Women's Open.  And Yani needs this one to complete the four majors, a career grand slam.  If she does that, at 22, she will be the youngest golfer, man or woman, ever did that.

 

There was never a Taiwanese golfer ever won a major before.  呂良煥，在60年代，試過但輸了the Brithish Open。 陳健忠，在80年代，試過但輸了 US Open. 

 

Unfortunately, Taiwanese media is more interesting in a few baseball players, or Lady Kaka or Gaga。

 

There are around 300 starter pitchers in MLB, so what if Wang was one fo them, (not anymore).  Big deal?  No way, comparing to the fact that there is only one woman who won 5 majors already when she is only 22 years old. 

 

Last year there is a closer/pitcher （收尾的，不是starter), was selected in the All Stars.  不知道是他騙媒體，還是媒體想自我感覺良好，居然，放話要戴一國旗別針出賽。 可憐的台灣媒體還登報期許，結果也沒戴。

 

Taiwanese politicians travel overseas, the media in Taiwan call them 拼外交。  Most cases, no one knows who they are once they are out of Taiwan.

 

This young woman, since 5 years ago, single handed, 使中華民國國旗在所有她比賽過的球場飄揚。 She is the only Taiwanese who is 在美國拼外交。那飄揚的國旗，大概有幾千個國旗別針大，通常在18洞，與各國國旗並列，at same time, on the TV，Yani walks up to the 18th hole to finish the game, waving to the crowd who are cheering her as a winner.

 

Watch golf channel tomorrow and she will tee off around 1:30.

April3， 2011

She is closing on another major today.  Yani Tseng is the world number 1 LPGA
player currently.


去年以前，台灣媒體還在瞎捧幾個棒球員時，（亂封台灣之子什麼的），曾雅妮是在美國唯一能升起青天白日滿地紅旗的人。 She beat the highly
rated (over rated in my view, from past 8 years performance) 韓裔Michel Wei as an
amateur when she was 15 years old.  

Yani 贏了三個majors以後，台灣人才發現了這位國寶。

Yesterday, the third day of the event, she closed on and overtook the lead by
two shots at the Kraft Nabisco,  the major which she is defending.  Tune in to
the golf channel to watch her again, friends. 


This could be her fourth majors.   No one in Taiwan have ever won a major, man
or woman, period. （兩次第二）  There are only a few who've even done it in the world
in professional golf.
