During one of my Shin Ae Ahn "deep dives" early this year, I unearthed several gold nuggets from this tournament that rarely see the light of day. I think this is a good week to put them on display.
A brief summary: The field of 108 at Blue Heron GC was jammed-packed with current and future stars. The LPGAers included SY Kang, Jimin Kang, Song Hee Kim, Joo Mi Kim, Inbee Park, Hee Young Park, Kyeong Bae, JY Shin, Amy Yang, Il Mi Chung, Eun Hee Ji, Na Yeon Choi, MJ Hur, and Jin Joo Hong. The JLPGAers included Ji Hee Lee and Mi Jeong Jeon. The KLPGAers included HK Seo, Bo Mee Lee, Ha Neul Kim, Sun Ju Ahn, SY Ryu, Hye Youn Kim, Soo Jin Yang, Shin Ae Ahn, Seul Ah Yoon, and Chae Young Yoon. The three amateurs included two future monsters: Hyo Joo Kim(age 14) and Ha Na Jang(age 17). HJ Kim and Ran Hong were tied for the lead at -4 thru 36 holes, but HK Seo shifted to overdrive on the weekend (68-68) and cruised to a five-shot win over Na Yeon Choi.
Round Three:
Shin Ae Ahn slo-mo drive during Round Three…as a rookie, her swing was definitely longer from start-to-finish compared to now...played with Winbee(black outfit) and Mi Jeong Jeon(purple top) in background:

Round Four:
No more slo-mos...how about this group at the 18th tee:
HJ Kim teed off first...look at that Rory pose/finish
