The entire tournament is tape-delayed by several hours on the regular GC TV broadcast. However, I think the first two rounds will be shown live on the GC website...here's the sked if I'm reading it right: Round One - Wed. 11 PM Round Two - Fri. 12 AM They're also showing the first two rounds of the LET's Hero Women's Indian Open at 3 AM on Thu. & Fri.
Per the commissioner's Twitter feeds the live stream will be from 11pm-4am EDT Wednesday-Saturday.Kevin

After the last two weeks, get ready for a big letdown in terms of fan interest. These Chinese events seem to attract no one for some reason. I guess Shanshan Feng does not carry the same level of interest for Chinese fans as Li Na in tennis used to.
I do like the groovy photos with the projected Chinese characters on the lady. Very noir.

Look at the successes of young Chinese women tennis players sprouting all over WTA; Li Na is indeed the Se Ri Pak of China. Shanshan Feng can't do it alone; LPGA have to do their jobs. Chinese are practical; the purses and endorsement richness for LPGA isn't in the same league as WTA.

Fresh off her successful Symetra Tour 2018 season, Ruixin Liu is ready to go. . . Is English a second language in China? . . .It seems to me that most of these Chinese Nationals speak fluent English. . . RUIXIN LIU LOOKS TO BUILD OFF SYMETRA SUCCESS China’s Ruixin Liu won three times on the Symetra Tour this season, including the final two events on the schedule, on her way to winning the 2018 Player of the Year award and earning her 2019 LPGA Tour card. Liu will make her second career LPGA start this week before stepping up to the LPGA Tour full time next season.

No one ever shows up at the Blue Bay event, probably because it's a resort in a remote location. However, this one is in the center of the Shanghai city limits...per Wikepedia, that's a population of about 24 million...how can they possibly have a low turnout in this alleged golf nation?
Porna wants the wheels.

philknjThere are more than 80 million people within 80 miles of Shanghai, but Chinese don't like to pay money for sporting events. There is a WGC event in Shanghai every year, the crowd doesn't come close to that of KEB Hana Bank even though Tiger Woods, Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy are in the field.
