LET: 2018 ActewAGL Canberra Classic

My guess is that an event like this doesn't have two nickels to rub together for TV infrastructure.  The LET and ALPG websites say nothing about TV, so I assume there's no broadcast for GC to piggyback on.  That's too bad, as the pix I've seen of this place online indicate that it's in immaculate condition.  They have three nine-hole courses and completed most of a bunker reconstruction project that started in 2015.

C. Matthew interview:

So it looks like Dean might have bailed on REAL Ko....unless JYK weaseled her way to get Ji Ya to pay for Dean's flight and will meet up with REAL Ko at the Oz Open next week.

Dame Laura

How can you forget the sky-rocketing career comeback of Lori Kane?  She'll probably outplay Weirsy (T-110 thru two rounds at Pebble) this week.

It must have been a perfect warm-up for Pernilla...shot 66 in the AM and leads at -10.  Minjee and Shin haven't started yet.

In a field of 144, only the top-54 (plus ties) make the cut...I guess they don't want the chump change spread too thinly.  Lori Kane is T-79, so she can still beat Weirsy this week.  The ALPG website says the course yardage is 5828...that must be in meters, which would really make it about 6,374 yards.
