Round 3
Here are the final scores. As mentioned above, the LPGA won 8 of 12 matches in the singles to come from behind and win the ING Trophy. The MVPs were Chella Choi (for the LPGA) and Jin Young Ko (for the KLPGA).
1. KLPGA wins: Hee Young Park loses 1 down to Ji Hyun Kim 2
2. LPGA win: Amy Yang wins 2 & 1 over Jeong Eun Lee 6
3. KLPGA win: Q Baek loses 3 & 1 to Hae Rym Kim
After three matches, the KLPGA notched two wins to 1. Not a promising start for the LPGA, who needed a rally to win. However:
4. LPGA win: Mirim Lee over Su Yeon Jang 1 up
5. LPGA win: MJ Hur over Hee Won Jung 5 & 4
6. LPGA win: Mi Hyang Lee 1 up over Cecilia Cho
Two of these matches were razor thin wins, but all three went to the LPGA
7. KLPGA win: Jenny Shin destroyed 6 & 5 by Ji Hyun Kim
8. LPGA win: Eun Hee Ji triumphs 1 up over Seon Woo Bae (this despite an ace by Bae)
9. LPGA win: Chella Choi wins 3 & 2 over Min Sun Kim 5
Crucial win for Ji, another really close one, while MVP Choi gets her win over Min Sun Kim
10. LPGA win: Hyo Joo Kim 1 up over Seung Hyun Lee
11. LPGA win: Sei Young Kim 3 & 2 over Ji Hyun Oh
12. KLPGA win: So Yeon Ryu loses 3 & 2 to Jin Young Ko
In another situation, Ryu's loss to KLPGA star Ko might have been crucial, but the LPGA wins here and elsewhere made winning that match unnecessary!
