OK
any sponsor invites?

But let's face it...the Pink Diva only likes the Japanese for endorsements and Charley is on her pub crawls this week.

It is more than just event winners, or else the field would be about half its current size. They also used the tour money list...don't know about sponsor invites. Lexi and Nasa were qualified to be here, but chose not to play.

They are playing at Miyazaki CC on the far southern end of Japan's Kyushu island...palm trees are near the clubhouse.

The above link is working reasonably well (as of now). It will show Round One at the 1st, 9th, and 18th holes until 2:45 PM (Japan time). The last pairing will tee off at 11 AM.

The streaming quality has been so-so at best. The same could said for the golf...a lot of bad lies in the rough...only ten players under par so far.

They're playing in pairs, but Porani Chutichai flew around the course as a single and was the early leader at 69 (-3). Kaore Ohe also had a 69.

You could hand Bo Mee Lee(+1 thru 15 holes) the P.O.Y. award now, as Ritsuko Ryu is taking a dive (+8 thru 16 holes).

Yumiko Yoshida(74) might be the JLPGA jokester...she concluded her post-round interview with "thank you so much" in English.
