The problem that Lydia is going to have is that she is so short off the tee. She's always depending on her putter and when it was spectacular she could win in spite of her lack of distance. When her putting went to only very good she's had a hard time competing against women that are hitting 60-70 yards past her.

Any time a player depends too much on one part of his or her game, they might have tremendous success for a short period of time, but usually fade. I think that we're seeing the same thing on the men's side with Jordan Speith. His putting has to be far better than anyone else in order for him to win. His ball striking is mediocre. He's not as short, relative to his competition as Lydia is, but he needs his putting to be spectacular in order to win.

I do think that Lydia looks great after the weight loss. I don't know if that affected her distance or weight los, but if I were her coach, I suggest that she start spending a lot of time in the gym.
