Struggling Tseng needs less criticism, more appreciation
Current world number one Yani Tseng celebrated a career landmark in the 2011 season as she racked up seven professional titles that also included two majors, but the
question, whether the struggling LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association) star has overcome her nerves, looms large as she has done nothing but let down her fans in the recent past.  
As it is not surprising for a player to be put under scrutiny in women’s golf, Tseng has seen something more challenging and mind-numbing than any other LPGA player.

Although her performance only started worsening in the mid of the 2012 season, the level of criticism has been massive—something the still-strong golfer  likes to steer clear of as she has
often said in her interviews that her fans’ response plays an important part in her performance.
Observers say that it was Tseng’s rock-solid consistency that kept her in the limelight in the entire 2011 and early 2012 season. However, her fans still see her as a golfing icon and they
believe it is not that unusual for a player to face a lacklustre stint.
Players have often proved both on the LPGA and PGA (Professional Golf Association) that a brief victory drought does not always mean a virtual end of their career, as they normally bounce
back after one good performance and regain their lost reputation.
From the outset, nerves have been a bit of a trouble for Tseng as her track record shows that as longs as she keeps winning tournaments, she stands strong, but once she loses momentum, her
plans become flawed and performance slumps.
Having faltered in most of the recent events on the LPGA Tour, Tseng is facing a worst drought in her pro career, although she still has not lost hope as she says that her biggest concern
is to regain her consistency—a key component in her solid profile that boasts five major victories.
She got off to an electrifying start in the 2012 season that saw her rack up three titles, but her critics like to point out that the LPGA phenom has yet to end her victory drought in order
to put her game into order, despite the fact that she still stands firm at the number one position in the Women’s World Golf Rankings.  
The media hype surrounding Tseng is certainly not doing any good as the pressure from her fans is mounting by the day and they want her to make another promising start in the 2013 season.
In order to get to back to her winning ways, Tseng has gone through some changes lately. The most notable is a “caddie change” that she had a few months back — which she expects will help
her regain her composure.
A caddie change can be a lot better idea than to keep recording grim finishes, but the only thing that is going to matter is less criticism and more appreciation.
