Cheyenne Woods is better than Lexi Thompson -- at throwing out first pitches

April 24, 2014

Cheyenne Woods' fame continues to grow, which means at some point, she was going to be asked to throw out the first pitch at a baseball game. It happened Wednesday night, when Woods, in Tampa for a Symetra Tour event, did the honor before the Rays' game against the Minnesota Twins.

Woods posted a video to her Instagram account and she seemed pretty happy with how the toss turned out:

In any event, Woods fared much better than Lexi Thompson, who bounced her first pitch at a Miami Marlins game last Friday. To her credit, Thompson joked about it on Twitter after, saying she "threw a grounder" and that she's sticking to golf.

So will Woods, but both should keep their throwing arms loose. At a combined 42 years old, these two should be in the spotlight for a while.
