Yeah, this is one of the reasons that the Golf Channel's systematically ignoring the Koreans is so inexplicable. That same feed goes to a customer who pays massive money (more than Golf Channel I'd wager) primarily because they want to see Korean golfers, yet Koreans are usually put in out of the way pairings and ignored even when they play with American golfers. I would think that SBS would sooner or later complain about it to the LPGA. Why do we see so much of Yani Tseng hacking her way around the course? Why is one-time winner Brooke Henderson given a prime pairing instead of one time winner Chella Choi, or two time winner Mirim Lee? Why doesn't SBS try to lean on the LPGA a little to even things up a little? Anyway, Go Sisters!!!  Happy You seem to hate everything Merican......move up here to Van City. Then you'll be able to hang out with many Koreans here playing golf and go out with them after golf for some Korean BBQ, Hite Beer, Soju and promote ss.com to them. For a white guy...why the fascination for all things Korean? So can I assume you won't be staying up from 11pm - 9am PST to watch the Solheim?  Ole Ole!! PS They'll show Eldrick hacking it up....but Yani is no TW....so I'm a bit surprised with all of GC's luv for Yani. Yes, GC also luvs Brooke too.....considering the Yanks are folding....I think they want Brooke to be an adopted Merican. Even The Smiling Buddha doesn't fawn over Brooke...now if it was Eugene Bouchard. |

The collapse of the Dumbo Express is the biggest story out of the Tap Water Championship so far. The poor pro shown giving her instruction will be replaced by Butch or Deadbetter any day now. At least she was able to dominate Paula, her fellow US Open Winner.

Korean border blindfolded wearing a Dumbo fan club golf hat. |

It's nothing unusual and not any reasons to push panic buttons. |

Happy I don't want to anger you further considering you're mad at all things Merican. I just looked at www.lpga.com. There's no post rd interview with MHL...yet there are interviews with Shanshan, Pressel and Broch (who??). I still hope you can have a nice weekend...the weather looks favorable. At least you can celebrate cause no Merican made it into the US Open finals....Serena was upset...so we'll see an all Italian final....and the Seahawks kick off their season this Sunday.....12th Man Baby...though they are playing in St. Louis. |

It's nothing unusual and not any reasons to push panic buttons. I agree. She had an OK round today, just not enough to get her within the cut line. She has been so solid the past four months that you sometimes forget she'll have times like this.  Oh well. hopefully she can enjoy the beautiful weather, then go back to Korea and get that billion won money total! |

Well, not a great leaderboard after round 2. It seems like the Sisters are in a bit of a slump right now.
Can Mi Hyang actually win this thing? That remains to be seen. She is a good player, but this will be a whole new ball game.
The intriguing lineup sits at 4 under, currently five back. Amy Yang, Inky and Il Hee Lee. Assuming that Lee is a longshot, what about the other two? Certainly, these are two players who should have already won a Major in their careers. Can they possibly overcome their nerves in the crunch? I'll tell you what, if either or both of those ladies can get into the final group on Sunday, I'll be rooting like heck for them to get the job done. It's really a wash who is more overdue; Amy gets close more often, but nothing was worse than IK's horrible near miss a few years ago. Go you two!
Alas, Inbee and Hyo Joo played well today, but are going to have to really bring it tomorrow to have any chance. We know both are capable of low scores on this course, so who knows? I just wish the commentators could go two sentences when talking about Inbee without talking about how she hasn't won the Grand Slam. We get it, she needs five Majors. Now please stop, Karen!
Now that So Yeon is too far back to win, I expect two great rounds to get her close but no cigar.
Dark horse wish to see Jin Young Ko climb into the hunt. They actually showed her today on the broadcast!
Go Sisters!!!
Mi Hyang Lee
Inbee Park
Sei Young Kim - oh yeah, let's not forget about her! Keep up the good work, SYK!
Hyo Joo Kim
So Yeon Ryu
In Gee Chun
Alison Lee
Q Baek - hey, she made the cut at least!

Sei Young needs a 65 to get into real contention on Sunday; Go Sei Young!

Certainly, these are two players who should have already won a Major in their careers. Happy: You've done it again....you keep on omitting her....she's at -4 too. This is her last chance....wouldn't you be excited to see a fake Sista become the youngest to win a fake major? Is it because you don't like The Dragon Lady? KO IS KOOL. |

Alas, Inbee and Hyo Joo played well today, .....
Now please stop, Karen! Inbee missed some really makeable putts...didn't even edge the lips. Agree....goodbye Stupples. |

Morgan Pressel is continuing to play impressively in contrast to the general malaise infecting veteran US players.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed Michelle Wie can continue to shoot low. She appears to be truly healthy.

That's rich.
There are a few fake Koreans with a chance to win this thing. Now that IK pulled a Serena and is out of contention, there are a number of players I am hoping can win, including Morgan--it will give her a second fake major since 2007. |

Isn't it great when the "wrong" player refuses to take a dirt nap on Moving Day for the golf establishment?!    How about Lexi the Knuckledragger spinning a wedge into the hazard on that short downhill par-3 16th? How about Morgan's brain fart hybrid at #18? They are spoiling GolfChannel's narrative!!! I'm down to two Yuenglings in the fridge...one for Bo Mee Lee...and one for MHL...better get more. |

I think Lexi is miscast in the role of American women's golf savior. She's still young and her personality needs more time to come through but she's not someone that's easy to pull for. Her golf outfits are extreme fashion failure for one thing. It's good she's sponsored by redbull because those outfits crash hard. After that she's a little dull and it's off-putting when someone is so obviously marketed as the next big thing just because she's an american blonde that can win.
Still no profile picture of In Gee Chun on the LPGA scoreboard website. Maybe you have to be a member to get one but I wonder when Brookie H. first got hers. It's the little things...
