She isn’t a true bomber, but she’s one of the longest straight hitters on tour. What sets her apart is a velvet putting touch, maybe the best on tour. If she can win this week, she solidifies her legitimacy as the No. 1 player in the women’s game and begins a run to succeed Annika Sorenstam and Lorena Ochoa as the LPGA’s next dominant player.”TV SCHEDULEFourteen hours of TV coverage are scheduled for the 2010 U.S. Women’s Open.Thurs, July 83:00-7:00 PM ET ESPN2Fri, July 93:00-7:00 PM ET ESPN2Sat, July 103:00-6:00 PM ET NBCSun, July 113:00-6:00 PM ET NBC
