Although the 2012 U.S. Women's Open Championship week officially begins on July 2nd with flag-waving events planned for the entire week, I'm not sure how many people are aware of the history, kickoff, players or even knowledgeable about the beautiful Blackwolf Run golf courses. Allow me to brief you so that you will want to tune in and cheer on the ladies!
To be quick, the U.S. Women's Open is the oldest championship (sixty three years) open to women specialists and amateurs. This year's "Kohler Experience" in Wisconsin hopes to recreate a unexpected death playoff that epitomizes the "Open" feel which occured thirteen years ago at this venue between Se-Ri Pak and beginner golfer Jenny Chuasiriporn.
The River and Meadow Valleys Course will merge for the 2012 U.S. Women's Open to recreate the Original Championship direction, a sort of "composite direction" of the 2 very tough layouts.
The "Snake", first hole of the River Course, may additionally get you at the green in with a stable force however you have to want the right aspect of a deep inexperienced to keep away from the bunker and river on the left.
No matter how scary "Snake" might look, it is not the official starting point of the U.S. Women's Open Championship: golfers will have to wait until the tenth hole to feel it's bite.
The first hole will officially make the girls "Quiver". Normally the tenth hole of the Meadow Valleys Golf Course, Quiver is a Par 4, 348 yard hole "with a daunting tee shot across the Sheboygan River to a fairway that narrows as you get closer to the green. Favoring the middle to left side of the fairway from the tee with a driver or 3-wood will open up your approach to the green. The approach shot requires an additional one to two clubs into an elevated green."

With regards to the ladies, the group of entrants ranges from newcomer (and Tiger Woods' niece) Cheyenne Woods to more familiar faces Natalie Gulbis, Paula Creamer, Michelle Wie, Morgan Pressel and world-ranked number-one women's golfer Yani Tseng. The U.S. Women's Open Championship is always an exciting event with the outcoming not being a runaway but I'll lay my odds on Yani Tseng as the eventual winner. Who is your choice to win?
