The groupings have been posted (including five TBDs). MHL is with JY Shin and HoJo...if the USGA read this site, they would have put MHL and JY Shin with Dumbo, creating Team Hampyeong.
Others:
Nelly - The ECP - DK
Hataoka - Higa - Narita
Davies - Webb - Maguire
Yin - Lucky 6 - Pei Yun Chien
Pano - FF Cano - Jimin Kang
Megan Osland - Megha Ganne - Megan Furtney

The USGA isn't waiting for Monday's Rolex Rankings release...Minami Katsu is in the field playing with Haruka Amamoto and Celeste Dao. Earlier this evening they had four TBDs, but the field is complete now. Nice to see Emma Albrecht get in...saw her at Forsgate CC where she was 1st alternate. She just finished up at Notre Dame with the school record for career scoring average...although 73.38 doesn't say much for the ND program. She was a 1st alternate in USWO qualifying last year and showed up at Shoal Creek, in case someone couldn't tee it up on game day...did not get into the field. Her parents were college golfers and daddy (Eric) was the LPGA's Director of Marketing (1998-2010).
Private in both cases.
********
She can be seen sporadically here:

There's a video tonight of the USGA phoning Bridgitte Dunne to ask if she wants to fill a spot in the USWO:

Tee times and more. 08:06 Ariya ,Sung Hyun Park, Lexi Thompson How did SHP get paired with those two has-beens? USGA will have 2 hours of bonus coverage on their website 10:30am-12:30pm ET on Thu & Fri. They'll also have featured group coverage at the same times as the FS1/Fox broadcasts on all 4 days. I remember the announcers on last year's USGA coverage were better than the Fox team (admittedly, a low bar). This year the USGA also has a Roku TV app and it may be available on other platforms as well.

So, the surest way to curse the Sisters is to point out an interesting trend.
In the past decade, the Sisters have always won the odd-numbered years at the US Women's Open, but only once won an even year one.
2009: Eun Hee Ji 2011: So Yeon Ryu (over Hee Kyung Seo) 2013: Inbee Park over Inky and So Yeon 2015: In Gee Chun over Amy Yang 2017: Sung Hyun Park over Hye Jin Choi
2012 is the only exception: Na Yeon Choi over Amy.
Also interesting: no repeat winners in that span. So that might be good news for Jin Young, Lucky Six or Sei Young Kim?
Hopefully I won't curse them and we'll get a Sister hoisting the trophy on Sunday. Hwaiting!

Actually it is a pretty fair pairing. They are ranked 13th, 16th, and 19th, on this year's money list.

I think it's exactly the same as last year. They use the same announcers for the afternoon featured group as they do for the morning bonus coverage. And welcome back. I hope this is the end of these ridiculous bets.
