WTH, Mi Jeong Jeon birdied #4 thru #7 and leads by two shots at -9. Pei-Ying Tsai is tied for 2nd at -7...gutsy little player, had a par-saver putt at #6 of at least six feet and ran it in like it was nothing. As of now, it is still JLPGA > KLPGA

What wasn't said was that while Mi Jeong was on that hot streak, A Lim was fiddle fartin around with a bogey-birdie
bogey birdie or net loss of 4 shots to Mi Jeong. . .A Lim caught her though by the 12th hole. . .Pei-Ying and Mi Jeong
are indeed both regulars on the JLPGA though neither are Japanese. . .Mi Jeong is quite an accomplished player. . .
A Lim has missed a bucketful of makable birdie putts, yet she maintains her infectious smile. . .

I don't know what these Taiwan broadcasters are saying, but I'm positive they dig A Lim Kim's expressive personality on the golf course...which is about 180 degrees opposite of MJ Jeon. Those two, plus Pei Ying Tsai, will be in Sunday's final group...it's hard to see Kim losing this one...she's got an extra gear the other two don't have (WOW regarding her 2nd shot at the par-5 18th) and her missed putts are missing by very little. Also, I think MSK5 is capable of shooting freaky low on Sunday, so she is not completely out of it.
Tsai is still the big story...I don't care if she knows this golf course forwards, backwards, above ground and below ground...you still have to make the shots and she's doing it. With a world ranking of #243, she has outscored 39 of 40 KLPGAers (plus Yani & Hsu), which is CRAZY good! She might win the 1st prize of $160K, which is about $10K more than she won for her entire 2018 JLPGA season! This event should give her a huge confidence boost for the JLPGA in 2019...if she can get into a tournament (lousy 60th place finish in q-school).
BTW, Tsai's outfit on Saturday was extremely flattering...cover mag material in Japan if she ever plays well enough over there.

Wasn't too good a third round for Ji Hyun Oh. She bogied two par 5s, which is never going to help your cause. Hye Jin made a little move, but probably has too much ground to make up.
Given the way unlikely homies were winning events on the LPGA in 2018, it wouldn't surprise me if Tsai wins tomorrow. However, I still like Kim and Jeon's chances; Jeon in particular has oodles of experience and certainly won't be fazed by her position.

I only could watch the first hour and a half of the broadcast.
The first two things I see is A Lim Kim way right of a par three green.
Min Sun5 way left of a par five green.
A Lim came close to making a long putt for par.
Min Sun5 saved bogey by making a five footer.
Not to worry because they both had great finishes.
Ji Hyun Kim got it to minus five for the day and finished at minus four.
To get to even par for the Tournament.
Yani hurt her score by missing two maybe three footers and a five footer for par.
Should be a great finish and I hope the live streaming work without interruptions.

Plays had started.
The best Yealimi can do is probably -3 today to get inside Top 40.

Woo-hoo, Dr. Noh has a one-stroke lead over Beth Allen...both have several holes remaining on the front nine.
