2008 Lexus Cup Qualifiers
Here's how the teams for the 2008 Lexus Cup look so far:
Team International
Captain: Annika Sörenstam
Rolex Women's World Ranking Qualification
Annika Sörenstam
Suzann Pettersen
Paula Creamer
Cristie Kerr
LPGA Official Money List Qualification
Helen Alfredsson
Katherine Hull
Angela Stanford
Karen Stupples
Team Asia
Captain: Se Ri Pak
Rolex Women's World Ranking Qualification
Yani Tseng
Seon Hwa Lee
Jeong Jang
Eun-Hee Ji
LPGA Official Money List Qualification
Inbee Park
Na Yeon Choi
Song-Hee Kim
Candie Kung
Each side has several absentees who presumably declined:
Team International: Lorena Ochoa, Angela Park, Laura Diaz, Karrie Webb
Team Asia: Ji-Yai Shin, Yuri Fudoh, Momoko Ueda
Who should be the sponsor exemptions? Notice that I didn't say captain's picks. Does anyone really think that Annika wanted to make Nikki Campbell a captain's pick last year? Geographic diversity is the significant factor here.
I'll offer what I consider a no-brainer pick for each side. Team International has to pick Morgan Pressel. She's next in line on the money list, just $544 behind Stupples. She'd only be the fourth American--that's not too many. And for Team Asia, China's best player, Shanshan Feng.
Team International has four spots to fill and Team Asia three. Put on your sponsor's hat and let's see some suggestions! Then feel free to take off your sponsor's hat and give us some real captain's picks and/or some players who you hope don't get picked!
