another sister act besides the matsumori's will be in this field: kotone hori and her sister natsuka hori.
natsuka hori is three years older (the "oneesan"} is a two time winner on the Jlpga (2013), you tube and dailymotion has many videos of her; for whatever reason her game has declined the past few years.
also, ayaka watanabe is not playing in this one. there is a nice promo video of her playing a round with hidetoshi nakata (the david beckham of japan soccer) again on youtube or dailymotion.

hidetoshi nakata (the david beckham of japan soccer) Does that mean he's a vastly overrated pretty boy?  ******** Didn't know Kotone Hori had an older sister...and really good in 2013 (10th on money list). I hope an article gets posted on why her game collapsed...had 24 MCs in 30 starts in 2015. |

nobody in soccer can "bend it like beckham" here is a link to bangkok bobby's website for one of natsuka hori's 2013 wins. it appears that she has played a full schedule every year since her wins in 2013 so her decline is probably not due to major injury. last year 2016, she played more than half her schedule on the step up tour. she is only 5'2" and appears to have a drive ave of just over 200 yds. bangkokbobbysports.wordpress.com/2013/03/31/natsuka-hori-wins-2013-axa-ladies/ |

maybe because I grew up playing neo turf masters but the japanese courses are so much better.

Just watched the replay on JTBC Golf...not terribly exciting, except for the replays of Lu's ace at #3. The next Round 3 replay is at 9:30 AM EST and they'll show Rounds 2 & 3 at 11 AM, 6 PM, & 10:30 PM EST. Bo Bae Song did the color commentary...they showed a brief clip of her winning the 2009 Mizuno...now washed up at 32?
