I would love nothing more than to see one of the Kelly Girls win her sponsor's event, but from what I've read and past champions, this seems to be a tight course with long rough, probably not ideal for Ina at least. Ina has never played this event before, so it's hard to gauge how she will do, but hopefully she's on enough of a run to get in the hunt.
Last year Min Byeol had a tie for 35th here bookended by tie for 4th finishes the weeks before and after..

I won't make a new thread but it's the Epson Tour Championship, points are juiced. Top 15 get automatic promotion. Here are where some notables sit right now.
7. Jenny Bae 13. Waen Phatlum 18. Saki Baba 22. Soo Bin Joo 28. Kum Kang Park 31. Amy Lee
My original predictions, some were good - Stephenson (1), Xu (6), Porter (11) and bad Lau (64), Szyrek (83)

Thanks for the information.

You know on some events they move the 18th tee box up. They moved the tee box up for Saturday and Sunday last year at Blue Heron also.
It has been officially reported this week 18th tee will NOT move on the weekend.

One thing I noticed at Blue Heron's 15th hole. You won't see this on TV. The tee box is above the green. The shot goes down into a valley or dip or whatever. If the tee shot is perfect the ball will be on level ground and players can lift the ball to the green easily.
Those who hit the ball a bit farther, the ball ends up on a down slope AND the green about level with their feet. The players struggle to get the ball up into the air and the ball flies straight across the dip/low and lands short of the green.
Maybe the long hitters can get the ball down deep enough onto the low to get level ground.

Weather will be perfect for the first three rounds. Sun. Cool. Beautiful.
Early forecasts expect rain for Sunday.

Oh wow. Oh wow.
I just saw a special personal clip from Blue Heron GC.
The rough is insane. Balls will be hard to find inches from the fairway.
Accuracy off the tee or you're doomed.
It's so bad some players lost balls in the rough during the practice round.
Players will need fans and staff to help find balls all four rounds.

Four players wish each other good luck in a "relay interview": https://www.instagram.com/p/DAn5TprPAsw Forgive my terrible Korean, but I think they are saying something like this: Yewon: Min Byeol and I are close, she's my favorite younger sister. As we went on tour together we became closer. Let's finish the season well and go out and have a great meal! Min Byeol: I have known Ina since elementary school, and now we have the pressure of competing for our sponsor this week. Let's do well! Hwaiting! Ina: Sung Hyun is a pro I've always looked up to since I was a junior, and I'll have the chance to play with her in the first round this week, so I'm very excited. Sung Hyun: I saw her (Yewon) play very well last year and I think she is a very good player. I hope you play as well this year, and I will learn a lot if I play with you. Hwaiting!
