The way its looking out on the course this week it looks like they are going to set-up Interlachen for the Women's Open should be as good as the men's at Torrey imo. Similarities should include: the longest course the Women have seen to date (although probably shorter on Sun like the men saw) some tough, and very quick greens, a short but very tough reachable par-4 on Sat+Sun, a very tough #17, and a reachable par-5 18th to provide some more drama down the stretch. Obviously there won't be any Tiger/Rocco showdown (although an Ochoa/Sorrenstam one might not be bad) but I think that we should see another great USGA tournament and a big part will be the set-up by Mike Davis.

It's got to be brutal for Mike Davis and the USGA staffers running 2 Opens in 3 weeks.  Of course it's better than the R&A going straight from the Open Championship to the Seniors.

Several non-Asian foreign player are at -1 and -2.

Mi Hyun Kim (who has won a ton of LPGA events) and Birdie Kim (winner of a Major) are over par and are different Kims than the aforementioned.

6 of top 7 and 10 of top 14 are from Asia.  (Yes, I know In-Bee moved here for golf when she was about 13.)

This Open might be hard to follow on TV.

Yea talk about a list to get confused by. My buddy is caddying for Bae and he knows Interlachen as good as anyone and she is playing well. If I were a betting man I'd take her next week.

Ask your buddy how the second green (11 for the Open) is shaping up. It was half GUR  a month ago.

It looked great yesterday when I was out there. The back left corner is a little dark brown but most of the winter-kill is gone.
