Ariya great iron play allowed her to be able to leave the driver in the bag. She was under par on par threes. She was also a great short putter. Not saying that she will start to struggle. But sooner or later, pressing off the tee will hurt your game.

Awful lot of shady characters in this amateur field, sign-stealers, PED users, Boston Red Sox, etc.

Do you get nervous when you play with Inbee, or it doesn't matter? "Oh, it's fun! She seems like not fun, but she's really fun."

That was a long SYK interview. You can tell the press is excited to be back on the beat.

Great matchup. These two have some history. Inbee's brought out the venerable Odyssey putter from the legendary 2013 run. Korean women's Olympic golf qualifying is really bad news for the rest of the LPGA. You got all these top players and give them this huge season-long motivation that for the non-Koreans simply does not exist.

Hate to say it but maybe In Gee needs the Vision 54 gals to pull her out of her funk. They can't make things any worse.
In Gee can't count on Ariya every week to keep her out of DFL.

I can understand why Inbee didn't come up with the win. Because the course was setup for the longer drivers, especially the par fives. She had to hit longer iron shots on par threes and fours. Also be dead on with her wedges and putter on par fives. Something she will have to deal with on the LPGA course setups through out the year.
But no excuse for Sei Young Kim, she is just a hot and cold player.
Anyway great rounds for Annie Park and Mi Jung Hur.

It became evident that the playoff players were not good enough to get their tee balls to finish within easy birdie range at #18. After the second time through, why not change the pin position to somewhere on the right, which was where most of the shots were going to anyway. I still remember a JLPGA playoff from a few years ago with more than one flag position.

Stupples talking gibberish again about the JLPGA being mostly a 3-round tour ... what was the point? NASA is the only Japanese player here and she has never been a JLPGA regular.
*******
In other news, a Google-mushed Chinese article says the Blue Bay LPGA will be the first full-field LPGA event in Asia ... 130 players, instead of the usual 81. Sure enough, the Final Field at lpga.com says 130 players (includes 5 sponsor invites and 25 picked by the China Golf Association).

Round 4 I was rooting for Inbee of course, but it felt like right from the beginning that it wouldn't be her day. Sure, she hung around the lead, and all she needed was one lucky break and she could have taken it, but again it just didn't feel like that break was going to come, and it didn't. In fact, she actually got the opposite of a lucky break on that third playoff hole. Oh well, second is still a great way to start the year. Sei Young really barfed this one up, that was hard to watch. On the other hand, you had MJ Hur, who was just fantastic today, and kudos to Annie Park as well. So, all in all a great week for the Sisters. Sisters hwaiting!
