I heard a rumor that next year it will be slotted between the Evian and British. Anyone else hear this?

Round 1 In super benign conditions, the Sisters cleaned up. Mi Hyang tied for the lead, Chella two shots back, and Hyo Joo, Sei Young, MJ and Six lurking within four. Even Youngin Chun shot a tidy 69 to put herself at 28th. The weatherman is saying the conditions are going to get a whole lot more challenging tomorrow. Hopefully the Sisters will adapt! Hwaiting!!

They just showed Dame Laura being presented with her hole-in-one prize: a bottle of cheap champagne. She didn't look too impressed after she examined the label. And I think she knows her champagne.

After reading about the bad weather in the AM, I'm a little let down that MHL could only manage a 70 during the good PM weather. But, she's still way ahead of where she was at the same stage in 2017 and we know what happened after that.

Round 2 Wow, MJ Hur had an amazing mix of great golf and incredible luck today. The luck came, first, when the horrible weather ended just in time for her round to start. Then, she hits a terrible second on the par 5, ending up in a lie where par would have been nice. Instead, she holes out for eagle. When it's your day, it's your day. https://www.instagram.com/p/B08tavkgcId So she shoots a tidy 9 under 62 and takes a two shot lead. Four back in a tie for third is Lucky Six, who had a great run on the front nine that the broadcast refused to show for most of it (just comments by the announcers, not actual footage: Lee now made a birdie, hey, another birdie, now an eagle... I mean, my god, she's a Major winner and she's charging up the leaderboard. And she's just behind the group you keep showing. SHOW HER!). Mi Hyang Lee is in good position for the weekend, as is Chella, but it's another Choi that is really surprising: NYC shot a 64 to move to t-11th, in line for her best result of the year. Go NYC! Lastly, look at Youngin Chun! 5 under and tied for 14th with three holes to finish. Could she notch her first top ten? Stay tuned! Hwaiting!!

I guess they couldn't show Jeongeun Lee6, because of the over par Solheim wannabes.
Anyway I think that Jeongeun is minus ten front nine two days. Even par back nine combined both days. I know that she isn't afraid to go low. Because she has done it several times before.
When MJ Hur chipped in for Eagle, I knew it would be her day. But she it followed with a bogey on the next hole. However she got back on track with a birdie on the next hole.

Carly Booth is a superbly fit athlete who cannot play golf...until this week.
The broadcasters said Booth started working with a new coach, PGA Europe touring pro Robert Rock...age 42 with a 70.98 scoring average this year. Bio from Euro tour website:
Has won twice on the European Tour, first at the 2011 Open d’Italia and then, memorably, the 2012 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, where he held off a host of charging stars including Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods on the final day. Finished a career-high 29th in the 2009 Race to Dubai Rankings presented by Rolex thanks to three runner-up finishes. Widely regarded as one of the best swing coaches of any touring professional, currently coaching Matt Wallace, Alejandro Cañizares and Thomas Bjørn while also helping out Kelsey Macdonald and Charlotte Thompson on the Ladies European Tour. Rose to prominence from a Midland PGA Professional and teacher before fulfilling his dream of playing on the European Tour when, having taken up Affiliate Membership, he finished 116th on the 2003 Rankings from his seven invitations to secure his card.
This guy needs to set up shop in the USA to give helpless American women golfers an alternative to Leadbetter and Gilchrist.

Not a fan of 6ix's pleated-at-the-bottom flared pants.
Is Muni's clothing sponsor Lululemon? It looks like she's wearing yoga pants.
That concludes today's fashion report.

Can't be that as I see wrinkles. What is that badge on her left sleeve? It doesn't look like a Nike product.

MHL heard my "aigoo" from across the ocean...three straight birdies, now in 4th place, three shots back with two holes remaining.
