Go Lorie Go.... our Island Pride...
One of the first things I do every Friday night is check where the LPGA is playing and just how our girl Lorie Kane is doing... and this weekend so far she doing GREAT and in fact she was -6 under today and is in 13th place on day 2 of Corning Classic in Corning, New York.... most of us who follow golf know that Lorie has slipped back a bit over the last year and hasn't had that great a start this season.... so I'm hoping she can stay tough over the next few days and make a great showing or even win it as she really needs a boost of confidence... I love Lorie and all she does for PEI as she is one great ambassador for PEI and Canada with that big smile... Lorie's first number of years on the tour she had a lot of "second" place finishes but once she broke the ice she grabbed 4 titles pretty quick.... I can remember one night I was downstairs at the cottage about 4:00 in the morning and I was hooting it up when the Princess arrived down and asked me what the "hell" I was doing on the computer at that time of the morning... I think she thought I was on a porn site when in fact I was following Lorie at a tournament in Japan she was leading and every few minutes I'd have to hit the reset button to update the score... over the past number of years Lorie has raised over $800,000.00 for charities like Kidsport in our Community and I think she had reservations about it this year because of her showings lately but the good news is she is going to continue with the Lorie Kane Classic Fundraiser at Belvedere Golf Course again this summer which is just great as she'll always be a winner here... Go Lorie Go...
