I like Inbee's chances in crappy weather; she had a great result at the 2012 British, which I consider the worst weather I've ever seen at any golf event. In Gee I'm not so sure about, but let's hope she has the momentum on her side. Sisters hwaiting!
I also notice that the KLPGA stars Ayean Cho and Hye Jin Choi, who were mentioned as competing here, are not in the field. So that puts even more focus on Inbee, the one true Korean superstar in the field (although I'm going to keep hoping that In Gee is on the road back to that level!).
Oh, and looks like In Gee is playing with Kerr the first two rounds. Sigh...
Greeny is a full Asian this year ... she was already part of the Dunlop/Srixon/Cleveland/XXIO/Miyazaki/Aasics empire, but in the off-season she also dumped Puma apparel for Louis Castel.
With a useless U.S. flag next to her name, Jennifer Chang knows where to go to get her bread buttered.
I'm guessing that's a Troon GC three-wheeler KMac is pushing ... our maybe Troon is too haughty to have push or pull carts at all. It has a rental look to it. I looked online at Dicks and GG and they don't sell three-wheelers with such a little doughnut in the front. I have a $30 two-wheel pull cart, which is great for cardio ... unless you get a heart attack pulling it on a hilly golf course, which is what I've been doing lately. The virus has jolted the push cart market upward, along with the prices, so I've read.
Well now we will see if it was the PXG Clubs or Alison Lee herself that caused her slump. Now that she has switched to Callaway Clubs. A Yean Cho, Bronte Law and Anna Nordqvist also went into a slumps playing PXG Clubs. Or maybe it was just a coincidence.
Yui Kawamoto has a veteran Caddie that has experience on Links Courses. So that should help her, although she missed the cut with him last Tournament. I expect her to play a lot better the second time on a Link course.

In the Milwaukee area evidently pull carts cannot be found for sale anywhere (along with kayaks and bikes). Lots of grandparents introducing their grandchildren to golf! Golf is one of the things that is thriving during the pandemic. I, too, have the 2 wheel pull cart, although when going up certain hills I go with pushing it. My new favorite thing is having my clubs on a riding cart, but walking the course. I feel like a pro walking along! It started early in the spring when our course limited riding carts to 2 per tee time (due to availability), but allowed players to put their bags on someone else’s cart and walk along.
More bunker fun. Another split. Man, I couldn't even imagine doing this stance. (critics say the LPGA players can't do anything different than a good male players can... I'd bet most of the PGA players couldn't pull off that stance, let alone some amateur).
Kang, an American of South Korean descent, said she has kept in contact “with quite a few” of her Korean friends on the tour. The competitor in her wishes they were all at Royal Troon this week, but she said she recognizes that the hardships and hazards of traveling abroad during a pandemic have made playing a moot point for some.

Latest forecast has the worst of the weather moving in late Thursday afternoon and continuing through Friday AM...exactly when KT is playing her first two rounds.
