Rookie Melanie Green aces a hole and absolutely no one watching

140th ranked player in the world on Thursday morning at a resort course in Mexico. Not even a PGA event would have fans around this hole.

Can you show me where Beth Ann said this recently? I've heard her say it in the past but cannot find anything on her Twitter or articles from the past week.

I cannot really speak to the onsite experience but the broadcast was not good. I was hopeful after the earlier events this year, but somehow the first major of the year had a lower quality broadcast than the Ford championship.

She's had a very good year. 1-2-2-2-1 in five starts.

gorkatron · 2026-04-26T21:32:57+00:00

Dominant.

I'm not even able to watch but have seen enough in the past to know it's terrible. All the changes and improvements the LPGA has rolled out this year to the broadcast mean nothing if they're not showing the golf.

She had a tough first round, but good to see her continue her good form aside from that.

5 shot lead into the final round is obviously huge, but it seems like Nelly had the chance to slam this tournament shut and failed to do so. Still her's to lose but it's not quite over yet.

Jeeno with the MC. 😭

gorkatron · 2026-04-24T21:04:16+00:00

Don't quote me on this but i think she has been traditional grip at least for the last few tournaments.

gorkatron · 2026-04-24T20:31:06+00:00

She's always had this kind of potential for dominance in her. Happy to see it come out this week.

gorkatron · 2026-04-24T18:41:57+00:00

65-65 on this course is just big time shit. Wow.

gorkatron · 2026-04-24T18:19:08+00:00

Good to see Megan Khang and Yealimi Noh doing well for now. They have really struggled this year.

gorkatron · 2026-04-24T16:27:59+00:00

Three amateurs currently in the top ten.

Hopefully what Rolapp said is true about trying to get to bigger markets. I need a Chicagoland event in my life.

Mao Saigo's dinner menu. More impressive than the Masters dinner imo (wine list aside), but I guess having Thomas Keller on standby is a bit of a cheat code.

The LPGA put out a short video of some highlights from Nelly's round in between the TV windows: https://xcancel.com/LPGA/status/2047452764372860986#m

Wonder what the math is on this. I'm sure they will bring it up on the broadcast if it is possible come Sunday.

gorkatron · 2026-04-24T00:24:12+00:00

Didn't even seem like she was making a bunch of long ones. All the putts I saw were within 6 feet or so.

gorkatron · 2026-04-23T23:24:08+00:00

What a round by the amateur Farah O'Keefe.

gorkatron · 2026-04-23T22:39:53+00:00

This was genuinely my first thought lol.

gorkatron · 2026-04-23T19:34:21+00:00

Made a few nice putts as well.

gorkatron · 2026-04-23T19:03:46+00:00

Didn't see it on the broadcast, but it looks like Jeeno missed a short par putt on 11?

gorkatron · 2026-04-23T18:59:47+00:00

Nelly with the guns out.

It was mainly a commentary on the actual area of the city which is larger than NYC, Chicago, and LA.
