The KLPGA website has nothing posted for this event yet, except for a player information sheet, but the TLPGA now has an entry (link above). They'll be at Hsin Yi Golf Club in Kaohsiung City on Jan. 17-20 shooting for a purse of $800,000 USD. It will be a field of 108 (including 40 KLPGAers) with a cut of top-60 plus ties. The TLPGA website shows only 40 players in the field so far, including Wei Ling Hsu, Pei Yun Chien, Pei Ying Tsai, Babe Liu, Yani Tseng, Min Lee, Supamas Sangchan, Parinda Phokan and Jessica Peng. The Dec. 25 qualifier at the same course had 38 players...the top-10 qualified, but only one player (an amateur) broke par.

The KLPGA has an entry for this, but hasn't posted the field yet. SBS Golf will carry it four hours per day, Thu. thru Sun. starting at 1:30 PM (Korea time). Unfortunately, I just tested AQStream for SBS Golf and it just won't run. A Taiwan stream might be available, just in case.

Are you using AQStream or something different? A translated article also mentions Youtube, so I'll check for that later.
The KLPGA posted the full field...aside from the usual KLPGAers, they'll also have Anna Young (Symetra Cannuck), Beth Allen, Olivia Cowan, Florentyna Parker (she'll play anywhere), Victoria Morgan and Dr. Noh.

Yealimi Noh is steadfast; not influenced by invitation from Augusta National Women's Amateur Championship.
She needs to aim at a Top 10 and score serious Rolex points; she'd enough pro events under her belt.

I just tried the AQ Stream 2 and they are now showing a PGA event.

I'll confirm what SoYeonFan just said, but the original opening format is larger than what it was in time past. . .I still have to hit the "activate flash" message and then "allow" at the top drop down. . .using Google Chrome and Win 10. . .

Clearly, KLPGA is the driver of this tournament; Taiwan's website still doesn't have the final field. Most likely, KLPGA invited the 28 international players.
It shouldn't be a hard job; the US$800,000 purse dwarfs those of LET, Australian, Thailand and Chinese LPGA's.
Taiwan's LPGA has to be given credit for coming out with most of the purse.

I've just noticed that Yealimi Noh will play this tournament as a pro; there isn't an (A) next to her name.

Yealimi Noh has just posted an Instagram instant video from Kaohsiung Tawian; kid is taking it all in.

The 40 players from Korea form a Great Wall of China; a question is how many other players can break into the wall?
Beth Allen is capable, if she's healthy; may be Wei Ling Hsu, Pei Yun Chien and Yealimi.
