Time for Yani Tseng to mend ways
Current world number one Yani Tseng might have messed up in the second half of the current Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) season, but she certainly has what it takes to make a
surprise comeback.
Tseng may not have an advantage off the tee when she plays her next tournaments at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, as the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia is set to be played from October 11-14, at Kuala
Lumpur Golf and Country Club, but she has made up her mind about putting her game into order once again.
The biggest blow Tseng has faced in recent months is that she has let most of the players rise to the occasion, and now she appears to be under a bit of pressure because of her archrivals
advancing in world rankings.
Stacy Lewis of the United States, who had been struggling to prove her worth on the LPGA Tour a few months back — and could not hold candle to the top-ranked prodigy, has come out as a growing
threat for Tseng because she has now taken the second position in the Women’s World Golf Rankings.
Why Tseng has not been able to display her usual performance in the second half of the current LPGA season remains shrouded in mystery and doubts, but observers say that it is time for the
world number one to mend her ways.
Most important of all, Tseng’s biggest concern is to keep on the safe side, which means she does not want any player to knock her off the top position in world rankings.
So far, she has steered clear of any trouble regarding her position because she is still far superior to all her rivals in terms of points.
Observers said the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia 2012 is going to be very crucial for Tseng as she came close to winning the last edition of the tournament. She displayed an outstanding performance
but lost the match to South Korean Na Yeon Choi by one stroke.
Observers also pointed out that facing several defeats in recent months has certainly increased some pressure, but the star golfer is going to rely on her mental toughness and ambitions to
win.
