Wow, not a great opening for the Sisters.... They struggled in Japan, too. I guess after the great Evian leaderboard they are giving the rest of the tour a little breather, at least in the first round. 
How many times did Sei Young Kim hit it into the water? That was probably the most disappointing thing. On the other hand, looking at the positive, there are a raft of Sisters at 3 and 4 under par. Including Inky, who has been on a roll of late and I feel has a low round or two in her, and Mirim Lee, who won here two years ago and probably should have been three to four shots lower if her putter behaved at all. Perhaps it will start to fire right Friday!
(I don't think Mirim is miserable; I actually see her smile a lot more than the average golfer out there. But I wouldn't be surprised if she's out of her comfort zone, being this is her first ever title defense on the LPGA tour (she missed her Meijer defense due to injury)).
Nice to see Jennifer Song slowly round into form as well. At one point she claimed she was going to give 30% of all her golf earnings to charity. I wonder if she still does that? Well, if she gets in the mix this weekend, I hope we can find out. Go Jennifer!
Also loving Amy, MJ Hur, Hyo Joo, Chella and Eun Hee Ji in range. Sisters Hwaiting!
