What a surprise to wake up and see Meghan Francella in the lead at the Hana Bank. I was not surpised at all to see Nicole Castrale in last place. Two similar golfers going in opposite directions. Francella having a good journeymen type year but lacking consistency and Castrale is going through a spot so rough even David Duvall could appreciate it. Nicole Castrale has the greatest smile in golf and is happily married to a great guy whom follows her everywhere. This is apparently not a good mix for pro golf. Since a terrible showing at the Solheim Cup Castrale has just fell off the planet as far as golf is concerned. Since mid July I believe she has made one cut and that being the Navistar where she finished tied with Francella for 32nd. Francella on the other hand is never going to challenge for top ten in the world or the Solheim cup because she just has no intentions of working that hard because it's there, the tools are there just not the will. She seems satisfied with being middle of the road mediocre and is able t0 live with that.
You won't however see Francella or Anna Grzebien in the top ten at the end of the week and it's doubtfull that Pat Hurst will be there either. Shin, Tseng, Ochoa will be there and Catroina Matthews and Vicky Hurst will be there and that you can count on.

I saw Vicky Hurst play several times on the Futures Tour last year. Her potential is unlimited. She has one of the best and most powerful swings I've ever seen in women's golf. If she can get her putting down, she will contend for a lot of victories in the years to come.
