They tee off Friday, Dec. 8 at Twin Doves GC in Vietnam, which is about ten miles north of Ho Chi Minh City. Like the defunct Hyundai tournament in China, this new event is the start of next season. Lucky 6 and Sharon won't be there and the real Ko has moved on to greener pastures. Aside from them, it's a strong field of 102 which includes a few Vietnamese players, Prima Thammaraks, and a fast-healing Ha Na Jang. SBS Golf will carry each round at 1:00 PM (Korea time). The club has three 9-hole courses. They'll be using the Luna and Stella courses, which have much more water than the Sole course. fb.twindovesgolf.vn/

I was a bit worried that Ha Na would be struggling for a long time with that wrist injury...

Remember when Wiesy WD out of the Ginn claimimg an injury only to been seen days later practicing for the LPGA Championship? Mannika publicly shamed The Asian Giraffe when she found out.

Cyborg at practice this week...it's her first IG post since the LPGA Hana Bank. https://www.instagram.com/p/BcUOmhyHF-- The Google Mush of her comments has me scratching my head: It feels like the swing changes. 😅😅 Swing correction will be finished later 😂 final match well!

Leader Hye Jin Choi Uree Jun had a so-so rookie year, but she has a great pedigree: her dad played on the KPGA, and her mom on the KLPGA. She might be the first KLPGA golfer who has two pro parents. (from what I hear, she's taller than In Gee and long off the tee, too) Ha Na Jang Rookie of the Year Eun Soo Jang Ji Hyun Oh and Ji Hyun Kim -- Team Ji Hyun Power! Seon Woo Bae Gyeol Park Nike fave So Hye Park Newbie Hye Jin: is touching the trophy before the tournament bad? Whatever...

In pics and TV...things look bigger than in real life...so they must be fairly thick...that's why I suck in my boiler in when a pic is taken....I also have some beige duct tape to hide my double chin....lol. It's so funny...I think at the 2015 CP CWO....although we didn't know it...I think Happyfan was standing maybe 15 ft away when we were watching Winbee....because I'm the Smiling Buddha...Happy was looking out for some YUGE yellow skin black hair HYP fanboy and didn't find one.....and I was looking out for some white boy carrying a YUGE Korean flag thinking it might be Happyfan....and didn't see anyone fitting that description.

Maybe they have an 88-rule in place...two Vietnamese players shot 89 & 101 yesterday and won't play Round Two.

DUH! She still wants to play the KLPGA as a regular, but doesn't think she's ready yet...plans to play in China and Taiwan in 2018 and try Korea for 2019.
