The ladies is tough to call. Suzuki, Ana, Lorraine and Ashton all threw well, as did O'Brien.
Don't really care who wins but preference would be Lorraine or Ana.
I'd like to see Steyer and Williams in the final based on the play so far.

Scott Mitchell.

Hmmmmmm. Something about him I don't like and I can't figure out what it is. He seems a Jekyll & Hyde character to me. I reckon he has a really nasty side to him. Sheer speculation mind you. Come find out he is as nice as John Part!

I hate the way Mitchell waddles around the stage like a fat penguin with a large pebble stuck up its chuff. If he moved any slower he would turn to stone.

And how does he manage to get up into the cab of his "legendary" tractor? Judging by the size of him I would say he would need a block and tackle.

Mitchell has the persona of an affable gent - and this is accurate. However on the oche he's a dark arts practitioner, more subtle than the likes of Manley and the latter day Ted but constantly changing rhythm always forcing his pace on the game.

Is it effective - really depends on the opposition but the irony for Mitchell is that he's actually a much better player when he's not playing the man and playing quicker than his usual matchplay setting.

Ana averaging more than the majority of the men, there.

[Case]

Not exactly a new phenomenon, there.

[ChrisW]

See Veenstra has been told to crop his collection of sponsors.

Day blows it.

[ChrisW]

Didn't see today's.
Suspect last night was the busiest being a Saturday and still a larger field involved.
