I saw Mi Hyang's hole-out, but haven't found a video of it to post.
Ayean Cho was the masked member of Team Volvik...she's on IG, but hasn't posted anything yet.

Brilliant event. Both teams looked invigorated to be there. The cold weather gave it kind of a gladiator feel at times.
Best/Only English language coverage right here at ss, as usual. Too bad Beth Ann's or Matt Cooper's bosses couldn't see fit to even peripherally cover it. They would have gotten some great stories.
It's not like there was anything else going on in the golf world this week.

One of the things I love about these types of events is how you sometimes see the birth of new friendships.
It looks like So Yeon and Danielle Kang have really become new BFFs (I know they liked each other before, but it sure escalated this week!). That photo I posted of Danielle clicking a pic of So Yeon says it all. They've been sending mash notes to each other on their Instagrams. It's so sweet. I suspect that they both would like having another BFF on tour given that Inbee and Michelle seem to play only sporadically these days.
In Gee and Jenny Shin looks like another possible friendship. It seems to me like In Gee is friendly with everyone, but doesn't really have a close pal on tour. Maybe she and Jenny will become best buddies.
This event is the bomb, and I hope they keep doing it. I just wish I could DVR this. The event fell in the middle of my evening and was over by 10ish, making it really hard for me to watch much of it.

That is my dream...MHL doing a dance at the Seaview, but that course usually befuddles her. YTN must think their viewers are dumbbells...they report JY Shin's win, but show her playing the 2014 Ricoh Women's British Open.
********
A Lim Kim ... I knew she was good by name only, but watching a couple of her swings made me sit up and take notice...WOW. SW Bae is leaving for Japan and if Lucky 6 departs for the U.S., it's not crazy to think that Lim could push her way to the top of the KLPGA heap in 2019.

philknj How about Ayean Cho? As an amateur 3 months ago, she beat both Jennifer Kupcho and Kristen Gillman at 2018 World Amateur Team Championship.

The biggest disappointment of the tournament; it's to be Hye Jin Choi.
She's clearly overpowered by Sung Hyun Park with no answers and she won't be a teenager by September next year.
By the same token; Ji Hyun Oh didn't distinguish herself either.

In Gee played her singles similar to her singles play at UL International Crown. The difference, Lucky 6 wasn't as generous in making mistakes as Anna Nordqvist was at the Crown.
In Gee still has one of the best, if not the best, short games in women's golf. But with her dipping in driving distance, she isn't as explosive as before. The last time she shot a -7 was more than one year ago, October 13 2017 at KEB Hana Bank.
Tiger went through five major surgeries to fix his back. Women's priority is different, no reasons to expect In Gee will follow suit.
It must be frustrating with what if's; had she not gone to Singapore on March 1, 2016.
