Asako Fujimoto gunning for her second win ... the first was in 2011 ... credits her pushy club looper for showing her the right putting lines.
Switch-hitter Mayu Hattori (-1) went to a lefty wedge in 2020 to overcome "approach yips".  
Kana Nagai ... still has a chance
Min Young Lee
Shiho Kuwaki
Kokona Sakurai (right)

Last year's scrub tour queen picked up her first win on the big tour
Her stated goal is to play in the U.S. ... if winning here is worth 19 Rolex points like in 2022, I think she punched her ticket to Pebble.
w/ low am Mamika Shinchi (+8)
Shiho Kuwaki played in the same threesome with Sakurai during regulation
The third player with Sakurai and Kuwaki during regulation was bystander Kana Nagai (-3)
After shooting 76 on Friday, the weekend became Gar-bage (second syllable pronounced with phony French accent) Time for SW Bae
