Julieta Granada

I agree that Julieta is on fire right now. This event may not mean all that much yet, but she still played outstanding. 2 events in a row for her. I bet she cant wait for next month.

Hi,shortcake.It really didn't surprise me that Paraguay won the World Cup,it just shocked me by how much they won by.They led it wire to wire,and Julieta was a big reason for that.She seems to have a full head of steam heading into the season,and I think she is going to have a fantastic year,if her play in this event is any indication.

I actually think Celeste Troche deserves as much if not more credit for the win. Your only as good as your weakest player, and on paper Celeste was leagues below Julieta, but she played better than anyone all week really. Best individual score (along with Mhairi McKay, where has she been btw) and seemed to make every putt she looked at this week. It's too bad she doesnt have exempt status because I can only imagine this will do a lot for her game and hopefully she can get into quite a few events this year. I've become a fan of Celeste's this week, and I've been a fan of Julieta for a while.

DD, the surprise for me about Paraguay winning is more to do with the fact that they have 7 or 8 golf courses in the whole country and that they have only 2 active players on the tour ........ Celeste's performance was a big surprise to me ......

Her performance was very surprising,and I have to agree with you and DJGOLFER that she played the best out of anyone all week.Before this tournament,I had barely heard of Celeste Troche,but I certainly know who she is now.

Whoever picked her to be paired with Julieta for this event deserves a lot of credit,because they meshed so well as a team.To beat the US by 7 strokes and the South Korean's by 8 strokes is playing some fantastic golf,no matter how you look at it.

Julieta actually picked her as her partner. They weren't just paired together. I think this is how it works...The toped ranked player from that country is picked and then that player chooses their partner also from the same country.

And if the top ranked player doesn't want to play then they just keep moving on down the ranks until they get to someone who accepts. (example: Korea)

Thanks for that info,Par-Tee Girl,I didn't know how they picked them,and to find out that Julieta picked Celeste just goes to show how smart she is.

I wonder if they will be together as a team next year?...They seemed to bring the best out of one another,and they could be very difficult to beat.
