Like the Avignon Festival of France, Adelaide Festival of Australia, Edinburgh Festival of the United Kingdom and others, Hue Festival, staged in Hue – Vietnam’s ancient capital, is preparing for its biennial cultural and tourism event

With the theme “Cultural Heritage with Integration and Development” and in celebrating the Millennium Anniversary of Thang Long – Hanoi, Hue Festival 2010 is going to be a grand, impressive and spectacular event with hundreds of exceptional cultural and tourism programs to enhance the unique cultural values of Vietnam and Hue ancient capital. The Festival will promisingly be a rendezvous for ancient cities and world – cultural – heritage cities, a prominent arts and cultural forum of Vietnam and the region, in association with the expansion of international exchanges, socio-economic development and the promotion of Vietnamese tourism development.

To promote the continued success of this nationwide and world-class cultural event from the Festivals of 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008 and together with the goal of improving arts quality and professionalization, Hue is ready to welcome hundreds of thousands domestic and international visitors to Hue Festival 2010, to be held from June 5 to 13, 2010 in its gorgeous and ancient city.

Where does Tiger Woods’ saga go? What will be the PGA Tour in the upcoming season?

Amanda Blumenherst

Let me suggest that 2010 would be the perfect year to start following the LPGA Tour.

I know, the LPGA has been struggling itself lately. It has lost more than a few tournaments from its schedule over the past couple of seasons, and the dearth of American winners in 2009 has made it hard for some fans to stay interested in the women’s pro game here in the U.S. But, brighter times are ahead for the LPGA and I predict some exciting performances in 2010 from a bunch of new young players that you will like to follow week in and week out.

Mina Harigae

I had the chance to attend the LPGA Q School tournament earlier this month in Daytona Beach (I even caddied for one of the players) and can tell you that Amanda Blumenherst is certainly one new rookie who merits notice. Blumenherst won the five-day Q School event with a solid 9-under-par performance. She is the “real deal,” and I would be surprised if she does not win on the LPGA Tour next year.

Blumenherst has done what many current LPGA stars have not done. She spent a full four years in college, graduating with honors from Duke where she was an All-American and a three-time NCAA Player of the Year. She is also a past U.S. Women’s Amateur champion. Watching her play and handle herself with reporters after her Q School victory it was apparent she has the mental maturity to go along with the physical talent necessary to compete at the highest level in women’s professional golf. The Scottsdale, Ariz., native is also as nice and friendly a person as you will find on a golf course. Spectators at events and viewers on TV will thoroughly delight in watching her play.

American golf fans should prepare themselves for some exciting and hard-fought battles in 2010 between Blumenherst and Michelle Wie. With her first LPGA victory this fall, Wie has finally “come into her own” as a professional golfer and will most likely be near or at the top of the leaderboard in many LPGA events in the upcoming season. Wie’s victory came none too soon for the tour, which is hoping to capitalize on her popularity among golf fans. A rivalry between Blumenherst and Wie would be wonderful for the LPGA. Wie is already a household name, while Blumenherst is well-known to those following women’s golf, but she could take on superstar status and become another household name if she plays up to her capabilities.

There are several other youngsters coming out of Q School and the Duramed Futures Tour who could also make their marks on the LPGA in 2010. In fact, the talent level on the tour has probably never been higher. Some other LPGA rookies to keep your eye on in 2010: Mina Harigae from Monterey, Calif., Jean Reynolds from Newnan, Ga., and Misun Cho from South Korea. They earned their LPGA cards by finishing in the top three on the season money list on the Futures Tour, with each notching multiple victories in 2009. Reynolds came into the national spotlight last summer when she contended for the victory at the U.S. Women’s Open.

Among the other new LPGA rookies who earned their cards at Q School this month and could contend in 2010 are:

Mariajo Uribe, Colombia
Marianne Skarpnord, Norway
Maria Hernandez, Spain
Gwladys Nocera, France
Lucy Kim, South Korea
Pernilla Lindberg, Sweden
Beatriz Recari, Spain
Lisa Meldrum, Canada
Azahara Munoz, Spain

Incoming LPGA Commissioner Michael Whan has his work cut out for him as he tries to restore events that were lost over the past few years and build up the tour’s schedule for seasons to come. The LPGA is certainly not in the driver’s seat in its current relationships with sponsors and event organizers. The number of events has dropped from 32 in 2008 to an expected 24 in 2010. The tour will have to be as accommodating as it can be when it comes to purse sizes and scheduling. It will also have to do everything it can to build its fan base.

The LPGA has a new 10-year TV deal with the Golf Channel that starts next year. The expanded coverage of its events will make it simpler for fans to follow the players and watch the action. Judging from the numbers of new, talented players who will be teeing off in their rookie season, fans are going to have many reasons to start attending LPGA events and follow the tour on television.

COLIN Montgomerie says he would like the Ryder Cup battle with the USA to be a 30-man team event – to prove the European Tour’s strength in depth.

The Europe captain was thrilled by Northern Irishman Graeme McDowell’s US Open triumph when he beat Gregory Havret of France to the title at Pebble Beach.

Monty fired off a text to congratulate McDowell that read: “Brilliant – the whole Tour salutes you.”

And the Scot is more confident than ever that he’ll lead his 12 players to victory in Wales.

He said: “I wish it was 30 against 30 when we go to Celtic Manor and that would show the real strength and depth of our European Tour.

“It was just a fabulous week for all concerned – not only with Graeme winning but also let’s not forget Gregory Havret could have won the championship. He really came out of the week very well.

“But then Graeme has always been a very determined player and I am delighted for him. It’s a fantastic success for Europe and that can only take him forward.

“He’s obviously made the European team so he’s well and truly in the side and that’s fantastic.

“With Phil Mickelson having won at Augusta and now Graeme winning the US Open, I guess it squares the ledger this year as regards the Majors.

“Lee Westwood nearly won at Augusta and it was just that Phil played better.

“But European golfers are there or thereabouts every time and I expect the same thing to happen next month at St Andrews.”

McDowell’s victory was the third consecutive triumph for Europeans on this year’s US Tour and the 12th success from 26 events in season 2010 won by a European or non-American player.

Monty said: “It’s just been incredible. I can’t recall a US Tour season where so many non-Americans have won. We had Lee winning in Memphis and Justin the week before at the Memorial.

“It’s incredible what’s happening and it’s making my job as Ryder Cup captain that much harder – but in a very positive way.

The Ulsterman saw off stiff competition from Gregory Havret of France and South Africa’s Ernie Els to win the Major tournament by one shot, despite posting a scratchy final round of three over par. Speaking after his dramatic victory, McDowell revealed he was looking forward to celebrating his success at Pebble Beach.

“A few pints of Guinness will probably go down around now,” he remarked.

McDowell has previously predicted that Europe will have the edge over their opponents from across the Atlantic when they clash in Newport in the coming months.

“I really reckon this is the place we will win the Ryder Cup right back,” he said.
