That Step-Up tour event was cancelled as the course was still a wreck on Friday. A translated news item says 100,000 people in Kobe were given an evacuation recommendation for flooding.

Eima Koga can't be too comfortable during pro-ams when the amateurs are launching UFOs all over the place.

Not much suspense in the broadcast as Ahn was never out of control. Fortunately for her, they were playing the ball up...the par-4 16th hole has a stand of trees in the center of the fairway and her drive finished just short and to the right of them. The flag was left of the trees, but she was able to move her ball one club length to the right and find the green with a hybrid...game over.

Congratulation to Sun Ju Ahn for her win.
Somebody has to hold Fort, until the other Korean players find their game again.

My thoughts exactly. Sun Ju and Jiyai Shin are really holding the fort down while Ha Neul and Bo Mee struggle.
