2010 LPGA U.S. Women’s Review:
This week’s LPGA Tour Golf Tournament is the U.S. Women’s Open at the prestigious Oakmont Country Club. This event is anticipated to be extremely exciting for several reasons; it’s a Major on the LPGA Tour, the venue is outstanding at Oakmont Country Club, and for the first in about 16 years a United States players is ranked #1, Cristie Kerr. Lots to look forward to for U.S. golf fans!

LPGA U.S. Women’s Open Golf Picks:
As mentioned above, Cristie Kerr took over the #1 ranking in the world for women’s professional golf! She took over the ranking from Ai Miyazato, who has been dominating on the LPGA Tour in 2010, after the LPGA Championship. Kerr won by an astonishing 12 strokes in that Major, and rightfully deserves the #1 ranking.

Oakmont is going to be an extreme test for these women. If you remember, Angel Cabrera won the men’s U.S. Open a few years back with a total score of +5. It wouldn’t be a surprise if +10 win this Major for the women. Ok, with all that being said, women who are long hitters and those who putt well on these tricky greens will have the best chance at winning this U.S. Open Championship. This boils it down to 4 players in my book; Kerr, Pettersen, Wie and Miyazato. All four players’ have a great game for this golf course. I like Creamer as well, but am a little worried about her wrist injury in this thick rough. If she stays strong she will have a shot at winning.
