Odd timing for this one...runs Sat., March 17 thru Mon., March 19 at the Empire Hotel CC and is co-sponsored by the CLPGA. The KLPGA website doesn't have a field posted yet, but the CLPGA does. The total field is 102...54 spots reserved for KLPGAers, 40 for CLPGAers, and 8 sponsor invites. It's a little surprising to see the top-3 KLPGAers (Cyborg, Lucky 6, and Ji Hyun Kim) skip this one. Yuting Shi (relegated to Japan's minor leagues) will be here. Soo Jin Yang needed a sponsor invite to make it...and there is one invite spot unfilled...hmm, time for IMG to pull some strings for Muni.
UPDATE: Never mind...I forgot that the Symetra Tour starts on March 16 and Muni will be there.

So will IMG hire a cameraman to follow Muni in her Symetra debut and show a 90 minute replay later in the week on rds 2 & 3 assuming the FAKE Chinese doesn't trunk slam.

Reason for Saturday - Monday finish is Brunei is an Islamic country with Sharia Law and friday is the day of prayer and relaxation.

I noticed that the Symetra Tour tournament at Longbow on March 30 has been removed.
I talked to them a month ago, and they still didn't have a sponsor.
I guess I don't have to worry about the conflict with ANA anymore.

I posted the two qualifiers on the Founder thread.
I cancelled my KLPGA thread and added to yours.
When I cancelled my thread I guess I cancelled your reply as well.
Anyway I only followed the group for nine holes.
Jimin played pretty good, but missed some crucial putts.
The other two Julieta and Annie not so good.
They could not have shot any lower than they did.

When I started this thread, "Hoban Construction" was part of the tournament title in the KLPGA sked, but they must have dropped out, so I just deleted those words now.  *********** Aside from SBS Golf, this event will also be broadcast on Oksusu (whatever that is) and Daum (Korean search engine). I have no idea how to watch anything on those last two...it would not surprise me if they were geo-blocked like SBS Golf, too...although there's always the chance of "pirate" streaming on Youtube. The KLPGA should move their HQ to Pyeongyang, since they are so uptight about their tour. Meanwhile, the JLPGA will stream their product to the whole world for eight hours a day for free this week on the tourney website. |

It doesn't make a lot of sense for the KLPGA restrictions.
There has been a way to watch them for a long time.
Why change now when they need to retain players.

There are placeholders in Youtube for each round of the tournament...of course, it wouldn't surprise me if they were geo-blocked or wiped out later. I recommend doing a Youtube query with this character string on Friday night and see what it pulls up: 브루나이 레이디스 오픈 ******* Soo Jin Yang is no longer in the field. They invited the CLPGA Q-school winner, Tahnia Ravnjak. ******** Not much imagination went into that trophy....and that jacket is an epic fail.  |

The tour's top-five (Cyborg, Lucky 6, Bae, Ji Hyun Kim, and Jang) are missing...so the Mini-Rocket will never have a better chance of winning her first KLPGA event...and she is -3 thru ten holes, one shot behind the leaders. Practice earlier this week: https://www.instagram.com/p/BgTLs-DBuhr |

Larry looped for Ran Hong at the Evian one year...I guess when he sees the greenbacks he's not so bias against the Koreans...just sayin.
So where is Larry nowadays.....back at Fallen Oaks washing the golf carts?

I believe that's Karen Chun in the USC visor.
I am not one hundred percent sure.
