Good victory. Now it is time to start thinking about the ANA Shore.

I watched a video of Golf Channel's Morning Drive and they showed a clip of Inbee talking about how she made a wager with her father regarding this tournament. He would pay her $500 for each birdie she made while she would pay him $1,000 for each bogey. So add $7,500 to her winnings.
Solid stuff from Inbee!

I like this course.
Some stress of the tee at times.
Huge undulation and speed to the greens to make them tricky.
Considering it practically rains each day in Singapore....if you can't spin the ball....it will run out on the greens.
Good amount of sand and false fronts around the greens.

Congrats to Inbee.
She's just goes about her business without getting caught up in anything.
It's absolutely crazy that she went bogey free on this course.....great ball striking and putting.
Maybe Bumble Bee should be called Ice Queen?
Inbee has a 2/3 driver swing that looks like there is only 88 mph speed.....Lewis's swing looks like it's at 98 mph....yet Inbee was right out there and sometimes past Lewis & Ko.
It just demonstrates how pure and solid Inbee's contact is to get that much distance with a effortless swing.
Looks like it's time for Lewis to dump her new JPX 850 driver and go back to her R1....lol.
Didn't seem like Lewis gave Inbee much of a handshake or hug on the win.....based on the picture last week with Inbee not putting her arm around Lewis.....seems to be a little tension.
It's been said before....I think it's great that the Koreans celebrate a fellow player's win....but .....they gotta let's the playing partners/caddies do their hugs/handshakes before proceeding with the spray.

Oh ya.....g8 to see HJK secure a top 10.
I wonder when she'll play the LPGA again?
Hopefully ANA, Lotte & Swinging Skirts.

Congratulation to Inbee for a great win and solid ball striking.
She hit 35 0f 36 greens the last two rounds.
She hit all eighteen greens final round.
If she had putted like she is capable of (34 putts).
She would have left them waving the white flag.
So Yeon had a good day tee to green, 17 of 18 greens.
Thirty five putts kept her from a lower score.
Good rounds by Lydia,Hyu Joo,Inhee (seven under final round), Na Yeon and Sei Young.

No. It's time to get rid of this entirely, ESPECIALLY for Inbee. Act like you've been there before. You were the number one player in the world and a five time major champion. It's time to stop getting doused with water every time you win an event. Do it for the first time someone wins, and then put it away. |

How about running across the green, when you make a lucky seventy foot putt. Not to mention the over the top celebrating at the Solheim Cup. Even though I don't think neither is that bad. I happen to like it, that they show their comrade.

recap, pics and video on my blog: Inbee Park Wins 2015 HSBC Women’s ChampionsInbee Park I admit that with Ariya and Moriya taking a break, I almost tuned out of this event. I'm happy I didn't. What a thrill to have the three best players in the world battling it out on a Sunday! I like all three, but I was pulling for Inbee a little more than Lydia and Stacy this time. On a different day maybe my rooting interest would be different. I'm happy to see the tour come back to the States in a few weeks. Between tennis and the LPGA, I've lost a lot of sleep to begin 2015! I need the rest.  |

Final Round Oh yeah! Great final round by Inbee, and awesome win to stare down her two biggest rivals in the final group like that. How often have we ever seen the top three in the game in the same group on Sunday? Was there ever a Karrie Webb-Annika-Se Ri match up back in the day like this? I can't recall one. Inbee shot the same score as Ko, but that doesn't even begin to tell the story. Not only did Inbee hit all 18 greens, I can't recall even a single hole today where she had any struggle to make par at all. If she had made a few more birdies it would have been a massacre. She still made it look easy, while Ko had several tough up and downs and Lewis put at least one shot into a tree (!) but still somehow made par?  15 birdies, no bogies all week; the next lowest anyone had was three bogies. That's just insanely good, and my definition of 'earning it'. Congrats!!!!!  Pretty much everything I was looking forward to in my last comments happened! So Yeon did in fact make a top five, although she still needs to work on her putting a little. The highlight was definitely that approach to two inches on the one hole. Couldn't miss that birdie!  Hyo Joo carded a 67 and nabbed a T-8th, her first top ten since joining the tour. So in 8 rounds so far in 2015, she has only one over par round, one par, and 6 under par. I'd give her a solid B for that start. My guess is that she will play one of the two American events pre-ANA (probably Kia), then the ANA.  Nice run by NYC and Sei Young Kim as well, and In Gee at least shot under par today (her week? 74-71-74-71. That's consistent I guess, or at least predictable!).  Congratulations again to Inbee on a great win #13 in her career!  |
