She's been hovering around par all day (even through 16). It takes two solid rounds to make the cut, and four to be in contention for a win. Golf is all about consistency over the long haul - anyone can have a few great/bad rounds.

I would like to see her do well, but it'll be much harder for her to make birdies. With an average 275 yard drive, she's near the bottom of the men. That means she's got to hit the green on most of the par fours with a long iron, whereas many men can fly it with short irons and get closer to the whole. Annika's approach shots will be coming in a lot lower and hotter.

If she keeps nailing pars, it looks like she'll make the cut. We shall see ...
