Every group has completed the first hole...then they brought in Commish Hiromi Kobayashi for an interview. I don't know what was said, but she was quite animated in her gestures...as an ex-tour multi-winner, she probably wants to be out there taking her cuts with the youngsters. The webcam is now at the 5th green. Phoebe Yao, Sky Kim, and Ayaka Watanabe

After an introduction by a brass band, some guy in a suit is now yakking at the winner's podium. The band is now playing Pomp & Circumstance as Kobayashi put the jacket on MY Lee...besides a check, she gets a Yamaha piano and boat. Minami Katsu just got the low am trophy. The band started P&P again as Big Mama Ahn was handed an envelope, probably for low one round score. Kawagishi is up there now, maybe for being low rookie? Lee pulled out a piece of paper and is reading comments in halting Japanense. It's over and Lee is overjoyed. The applause has been cordial, but muted...no doubt the locals wanted Watanabe to win, who birdied #18, forcing Lee to make her three-footer for par to clinch the win.

this tournament is so much better than the lpga junk. And this minor league event maybe had more fans than the ANA. There are some youtube vids...they show the amazing concession stands at the events....women's golf RULES in Asia...Yanks hate women's golf....the only way to fix it.... is if more Yanks married golf crazed Korean women.

The crowds were down this year at ANA, in spite of all the new food trucks. I didn't get anything to eat or drink (I focus on the two water fountains on the course that Whan forgot to have turned off) I saw that a quesadilla was only $18. I'm sure it is worth every penny.
On Saturday, the crowds were bigger for Michelle than Lexi-- at least on the front nine. I imagine that next year ANA will be a zoo with all the focus on how Lexi was robbed. At least 50 hardcore supporters will follow her around. As a gag, I hope she decides to mark her ball from the side again, just to get the crowd going.

You should have tracked down SYRfan and borrowed his VIP badge...I'm sure you could have ate $755 worth of food in 1 hr.
