Meanwhile, many of the best amateurs were competing at the KB Women's Amateur Golf Championship. The final podium:

1st Seungmin Lee
2nd Hyo Jin Yang
3rd Min Sol Kim

The TV/media companies know which photos will get the most clicks. Hyun Ju Yoo stretching is a beautiful thing! Anyway back to the golf….

It might be a bit of overkill on my part, but you wouldn't believe how many pix of Hyun Ju I found; easily a hundred. Anyways, we don't get to see her that often, so why not give her a spotlight?

Was hoping that Hee Jeong Lim would have a good round.
She finished her front nine, bogey, birdie, double bogey bogey.
Better she made birdie on her tenth hole the tough par three.

Ok I hate preferred lies.
 It makes me hate it more when golfers wait until its time to hit before putting their balls down.
One of the reasons their rounds are so long.

I've seen great par saves and that one is at the top of my list.
I thought that a bogey would be a good score after the sand shot.

 Korea is a small country and not as big or rich as the USA, Japan and some other countries.
So degrading their buildings and their golf Tour is not funny at all.

Also all Su Ji Kim can learn from Hye Jin Choi today is how to keep coming up short of the green.
Although Su Ji has started to come back
