[QUOTE="JogginFrog, post: 3047828, member: 4994"] Preseason watch lists are space-filler articles. They don't matter in the long run, because eventually the season plays out and players get the level of credit they deserve. But I'm still offended at the lack of attention to Caitlyn Macnab paid by the handful of journalists who track with college golf. I was mildly disappointed a couple of weeks ago when Brentley Romine came out with his list of [URL='https://www.golfchannel.com/news/ncaa-season-preview-preseason-top-30-womens-individuals']top 30 women's college players[/URL] (plus a next 10), which included five freshmen, but not Macnab, along with some returning players ranked lower than Macnab in WAGR. Including her would have been justified, but there's a lot of excellent returning college players to choose among. But when [I]Golfweek[/I]'s Julie Williams left her off a list of [URL='https://golfweek.usatoday.com/lists/college-golf-2021-top-womens-freshman/']top college newcomers[/URL], I had to post to express offense on Macnab's behalf. Macnab may have been a bit off the radar playing in South Africa (despite top 20s in two pro events this summer), but Williams ignored the 63rd-ranked amateur in favor of players with the following WAGR rankings: [INDENT]278 735 816 996 1513 1535[/INDENT] She also left off the 17th-ranked amateur. That's just not doing your homework. I hope Caitlyn hits the course next week with a chip on her shoulder. [/QUOTE]
