A TV F-bomb - on the LPGA??

From: Darrell Jefress on 26 Jul 2010 13:29 Yesterday's broadcast from France gave me the first time I can remember an F-bomb being dropped on an LPGA telecast. Christina Kim, you might think? Nope. Cristie Kerr? Try again. Sophie Gustafson? Not even close. Would you believe *Morgan Pressel*? I would have pegged Morgan as somewhere between Zach Johnson and Ben Crane on the list of F-bomb candidates, but this one was plain as day, after the lovely French spectators insisted on clicking her cameras and causing her to twice back off on a bunker shot. this broadcast isn't covered nearly as closely as a PGA tour event, so I don't think the announcers noticed - even though is was probably the clearest I can recall since a Fred Couples incident from about four years ago. In the end, if I'm remembering correctly, she hit a great shot and saved par. But I'll never look at Morgan quite the same way again. DJJ

She's hyper-competitive, this generation's Dottie Pepper. I was surprised when I heard it, but not offended.

The silence from his camp has been deafening. Randy
