May 31st, 2007 — Nicole Perrot from The Squire @ Golf Babes
Nicole Perrot, from Chile, had a great rookie year on the LPGA Tour in 2005, winning once and finishing just outside the Top 30 on the money list. Unfortunately, she’s slipped a little since then, falling back to 107th on the money list last year. She’s made five of seven cuts so far this year and at the time of this writing stands 101 on the money list.
The falloff is easy to trace in Perrot’s
