Can Anyone Challenge Yani Tseng?

Coast guy! For guys it's ok cos after all they have more muscle mass but after all if u are looking at the longest hitting in the world on the tour (both men n ladies) non of them are skinny.

I met a Japanese girl on the Asian tour not long ago. Very good player makes every cut and very popular in Japan. She told me she needs to gain 5kg to hit further. This is the sacrifices a lot of girls make on the tour. So they really do deserve respect. Unlike me, I am big to start with so they all jealous. LOL

Na Yeon Choi is slender but her drive is quite long and about the same distance as Angela Standford when they played in HSBC Open in Sg.

Not only weight, if you are tall, you can drive very long ... e.g. Sandra Gal and Michelle Wie.

So much for their drives, what I admire most is how they arrive.
They swing is so very smooth and their shots are accurate.

Yes of course u need some height. I am just saying that some girls that can get the distance they want due to their lack of physical requirements they would go to the extreme of gaining weight. I am not saying ALL of them. Even NYC is not that slender. They are all muscle packed.

Christina Kim!

I don't think NYC is muscle-packed. She is indeed slender to slim built. In fact none of the LPGA golfers are muscle-packed. I would classify Paula Creamer, Natalie Guilbis, Sandra Gal, Vicky Hurst, Pak Si Ri, Alexis Thompson and Michelle Wie as athletically-built.

BTW, I saw some unneccesary & unsightly excesses at the waist of Yanni Tseng.

Ha ha Yani lives a good life but she work very hard on her strength n conditioning. All of the girls on the tour do. Ok not muscle packed but alot of muscles. U can expect a girl have a bulging triceps right? Lol

Suzann Pettersen is so ripped and toned.

i like yani's game.....and the way she hold herself... wonderful!!!!

but so sad that she's not as popular as she shld be..

NYC is not as slim build as she was last season.

Definitely put on some muscles.....look more athletic now.

As for Yanni, it could be that her trainer got her to put on bulk first then shape the mass to muscles. That's one way of bulkling up (putting on muscles).

Yeah, she looks like she's got a bigger butt now.
Not like J Lo but definitely not appealing.

Was wondering what happen to her, shouldn't they be building their top instead of their bottoms if they are going for distance?

Eh no. Cos for golf bottom is more important.. If u realize alot of girls on tour have pretty strong quads! Or thighs however u call em! That's how they generate the power!

quads and glutes!

I like Vicky Hurst's glutes

But sob is referring to her butts and not the Quads or Glutes.

I love Suzanne!!

I think u have a problem with me turbo?

I dun have a problem with you but I think you may have a problem in reading Sob's comment. No offence. Read Sob's post again ... He is really talking about her butts.

Well I would like to see you working on your quads and glutes without strengthening your butt.

actually i found out that a stable bottom is more important for hitting further rather than a built top....

JL... correct me if I am wrong...

U r not wrong MC. Cos girls generate alot of power (guys do too) from the bottom first. Cos that's the stronger muscle as compared to arms.

Haiz, now another heart wrenching reason why i suck at the game.... out of ideal "physical (top or bottom) shape" in the 1st place liaoz, lose-lose situation

damm i got a big fat axx...but cant seems to generate any power...

i guess big butt = more power is wrong....

This one the best weight transfer with her upper body

Just to clarify myself, yes I was referring to NYC's butt.
If you see her pictures couple years back, she well proportioned top and bottom.
But now I see that she got a bigger bottom, I don't know is that quads or glutes cuz she's always in pants not like Miyazato-chan(god bless her) always in nice short skirts or shorts.
So I can only conclude that she has a big butt unless we can get some pics of her without the pants.

No pun intended!
