From the crowds and the enthusiasm, this is fast becoming a great season ending battle with a natural team structure.
Here is a translation for the match ups for round 1:
1. Eun Hee Ji/Minjee Lee vs. Char Young Kim/Ji Young Kim (a good chance for Minjee to get her feet wet in this event with a win)
2. Jennifer Song/Chella Choi vs. Seung Hyun Lee/Da Yeon Lee (good chance for the KLPGA here)
3. Inbee Park/So Yeon Ryu vs. Ji Hyun Oh/Hye Jin Choi (this could be the golf match of the year on any tour. Wow! You can keep Tiger vs. Phil, this is the real deal!)
4. Jenny Shin/Mi Hyang Lee vs. Jeong Eun Lee 6/Cecilia Cho (Is Lucky Six back after a terrible LF Point? If so, this could be a good team for KLPGA)
5. Danielle Kang/In Gee Chun vs. Ha Na Jang/So Young Lee (you wanted Chun vs. Jang, you got it!)
6. Sung Hyun Park/Lydia Ko vs. Ji Hyun Kim 2/A Lim Kim (another interesting pairing -- Lydia and Namdalla? And the two bombers match like I hoped!)

Some foreign players being invited to this is a huge development. Sneaky best event of the year. LPGA media should cover it. If they figure out a way to get Michelle Wie involved in the future, Golf Channel will probably send an entire retinue to cover it.

Each team has 13 players, so it looks like In Gee Chun forgot to set her alarm this morning (I count 12 LPGAers, 13 KLPGAers)!

Danielle Kang is like mary poppins for this event spreading a spoonful of sugar.

The ladies each have their own portraits hanging at the gala! https://www.instagram.com/p/BqcP1Xnn1Sk Here is MBC sports' promo for this event. It's interesting to see which players they are promoting from each team (and in what order). https://www.instagram.com/p/BqeZwcDlOFi More practice. It looks ccccccold! Yay, In Gee is back!

Wonder what the strength of field rating for this event would be.

Wonder what the strength of field rating for this event would be. The winner would get about 26 Rolex ranking points; compared to 20 for typical KLPGA or JLOGA events.
