Straight shooting from Jessica. Congratulations!
Ha Na was really struggling with the heat and humidity but pulled it together to get 6th.
This is Inky's first top ten since April at the Lotte and 2nd of the season. I'd forgotten she finished third behind the playoff-bound Inbee Park and Sei Young Kim.

I like Korda as a person, congrats to her on the win! But it never ceases to astonish me that she has, what, five wins now? More than So Yeon Ryu. But Ryu has something like twice to three times as many top tens. And it's not like Korda is a great closer, either. I mean, she has been absolutely terrible this season, yet somehow she has a win and Ryu doesn't. It just shows you how much futility poor ol So Yeon has dealt with over the years. Meanwhile, the Koreans have definitely stalled the past few tournaments. Golf is so weird. After Inbee won three straight Majors in 2013, the entire Korean squad hit a yearlong drought with only a couple of wins in there. Then, right after the International Crown last year to about August this year, it seemed like they couldn't do anything wrong, winning tournament after tournament. Now for the past month and change, the Korean ladies have been coming up dry time and again. Decent week for Hana, Inky and Amy. Better luck this coming week! If there's one event the rest of the season I want to see a Korean win, it's the Hana Bank. I mean a Korean flag (sorry, Minjee, Ko, et al). It would be especially sweet if it could be Inbee, so she could finally do just about the only thing she never has done: win in Korea. Hwaiting!

Early call....I think Korda has this. Good call. Jessie is a great girl. Ha Na is such a class act. Korda just seemed to be playing consistent golf the first 3 rds without many 'lucky/usual' birdies. Ya, HULK SMASH is fun to watch...seems like the Mericans like her too...she was even talking to Ms. Pouty face.

Now for the past month and change, the Korean ladies have been coming up dry time and again. Pros like Korda, Lexi and Bam Bam and some other bombers are gonna win when they take advantage of their length complimented with great short game and putting for the week. IMO...it SYR's nerves and lack of mental toughness that prevents her from winning more often. In my books golf is 80% mental...the ball doesn't do anything until one does something to it. I firmly belief if SYR befriended Kerr....SYR would win more...Kerr would teach SYr how to become a selfish b*tch and showcase how to step on ours throats to win. Amy Yang could also reach out to Kerr too. Ya can't expect the Koreans to win all the time....ain't gonna happen....The Golf Gods never allows anyone or nationality to get too cocky.
