Lydia SUPERSTAR Ko

@dogmeat my understanding was one of his team in his academy was the main coach, but ultimately it sits under his 'brand'
I agree to a point with what you are saying, but with that, her caddie changes, the 'fallout' with Guy Wilson, it does seem external pressures too, and TBH, if her dad is trying to give her technical advice on her swing, while being coached by someone, that is always going to cause issues.
Have you listened to the interview, it sounds like he is pretty gutted about it, and feels that Lydia is doing far too much, and is getting fatigued.
That said, as above, there is his side, and there will be the other version.

Hmm do they travel everywhere with her? That would really cramp your style!! Interesting language around Mr Ko's lack of golf skills on that article

@chris-b I keep hearing the same thing from those in the golfing world, that Lydia's parents are way, WAY too involved.
She's old enough to tell them to take a step back. But it would be bloody tough. Perhaps Mr Ko should leave the golf to the experts?
Lydia needs to listen to my old mate Bobby Brown

@virgil She actually cried, so I can only imagine the monster pressure she has been under after all her upheavals. Really stoked for her, was a primo shot into the green for her eagle.
Hell I nearly cried while watching it at work!
Bloody amazing play off hole. Watched the last 9 holes and there was some quality golf in there. Lydia is hitting the ball a lot higher and further than before. Her short game was just amazing at times in this tournament. Multiple chip-ins and almost killed it with one on her first time down 18 yesterday.

Interesting article on the trials of Lydia Ko

Lydia getting back to her best

@taniwharugby if and when she breaks through the win will taste very sweet
-
Lydia has recorded only one bogie in 100 holes of competitive golf. Ridiculous
-
Lyds is in a good mental space right now
