Shanshan Feng can trouble big names at CN Canadian Women's Open 2012
Chinese Shanshan Feng, who rose to fame after clinching her first major title at the LPGA Championship 2012, can prove to be a tough contender at the coming CN Canadian Women’s Open 2012.
The CN Canadian Women’s Open 2012 is scheduled to be played from August 20-26, at The Vancouver Golf Club, Canada, with a roster full of prominent LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association) contenders.
However, one of the players expected to steal the show at Vancouver is Feng. Having racked up her first major title and become the first Chinese golfer to achieve that goal, the young star’s career is under observation.
Nevertheless, she has proved her mettle despite playing against big names in all the events she has participated in so far.
Analysts said that the Chinese golfer may face a tough time at the Vancouver Golf Club, as the players, who have already confirmed their commitment for the participation, are known for their unmatched skills and successes on the Tour.
So far, Feng has proved that she is hard to beat. She has played in some of the most nerve-racking situations, but every time she runs into trouble, she tends to hold her nerve.
Analysts pointed out that the field for the Canadian Women’s Open 2012 is loaded with top-ranked contenders that include the current world number one Yani Tseng, Na Yeon Choi, who has recently jumped to the second spot in the Women’s World Golf Rankings, Paula Creamer, Stacy Lewis, Cristie Kerr, defending champion Brittany Lincicome, Amy Yang of South Korea, Katherine Hull, Alena Sharp, Lydia Ko and Natalie Gulbis.
Despite a strong roster, analysts said that the major winner will likely put up a tough fight, given her performance in recent tournaments.
Feng has been training rigorously on the practice range for the last few months, and has managed to tune up her game to a great extent. She spoke to the media a couple of days ago and shared her thoughts about what she went through while improving her game.
"I decided to go to the US because the training conditions in China were really tough at that time," she said.
"I had to go to school and only had two hours to play golf a day, which is far from enough. I didn't have much time to practice on the greens and could only play on a mat".
