I thought Stanford didn't want to travel abroad anymore...not a realistic plan if you want to thrive on the LPGA tour. Creamer and Lewis are always there, as they have Japanese sponsors. Wie gets to practice the Japanese lingo she studied at Stanford U. It's hard to believe Ai M. is a first alternate...I assume she'll be there if someone drops out.
Of course, GC has its usual blackout of this tournament. It's too soon to know if SBS Golf or JTBC Golf will carry it.

I believe The Pink One has never played or rarely plays this event....yet she yaps how much she likes Japan and is sponsored by Ricoh and has a Golf Digest Japan calendar. Lewis participates likely as a past champion and especially when Mizuno was a sponsor...now that Mizuno is gone.....so is The Rocket.
Yes....truly amazing that Ai-Chan seldom plays this event and isn't an automatic invite.
Hopefully there'll be a live stream.....fingers crossed.

I always shake my head at the TV blackout. What is up with that?

No blackout for the hip people who sustain this forum...JTBC golf will show Round One Friday (delayed) at 6:30 PM local time (2.5 hour time slot)...the first replay will be at 11:00 PM local time. The Round 2 & 3 schedules haven't been posted yet. Dumb tourney poster...no pic of the defending champ or anyone else...except for an artistic rendition of a blonde golfer: cdn.lpga.or.jp/lpga/cms/2015/10/30/3903e661d9b6fd1560bf7d73a267177c59289c3b.pdf

Sakura looks like she's playing a 47" shaft.
Who is the gal in the striped shirt? MHL looks like she's going to her grade 7 graduation party....#majorfail Lewis has ZERO fashion sense.
Sky looks SWEET as usual. Phil can you please post a pic of Sky from her teen years...let's she if she's been under the knife.

Aza and Recari are stuck in Bali due to the volcano...they may not make it to Japan.

Tony: For this week's "Who's hot".....it should be renamed..."Who's choking it and can't close it out and blaming it on her ball" www.lpga.com/news/2015-stacy-lewis-can-win-it-all-toto-japan-classicWhy Pouty Face wouldn't just play the current ProV1 model is beyond me....unless she shopped for a new ball endorsement.....we didn't here any whining when the 'fake' Korean, Ko, switched from the ProV1 to the Callaway SR3 or changed all her clubs to Cally's. The more reason why Lexi needs to displace Lewis as the top Merican...and pronto!!! I see you are continuing to shy away from posting a "real' Korean/Asian(s) in the "Who's not" to avoid any dust ups with SoYeonFan.

Who is the gal in the striped shirt? Jae Eun Chung...the intern at lpga.com put an American flag next to her name on the Leaderboard page. ...and a few locals, Shiho Oyama, Erina Hara, and Hikari Fujita ************ JTBC golf will show Round 2 on Saturday at 6:15 PM local time...the first replay will be at 11PM local time. Don't know about Sunday yet. ************ In case you missed seeing the Highlights and Final Round of the 2014 Mizuno (I think that would be all of us), JTBC golf will show them at these local times: FRI4:00 - 5:30 AM (H/L) 9:00 - 11:00 AM (FR) 4:00 - 6:30 PM (FR) Oops, I just spoiled it for you.

Again batting for my future wife Stacy here. It's interesting how some pros struggle with new equipment while others sail right through it. Rory stank up the joint for a whole year after he switched to the swoosh. While Lydia didn't miss a beat after dumping everything, including ball, for Callaway. Of course those are the two extremes. I think it is just mental, more than anything, rather than the characteristics of the new equipment.

I think it is just mental, more than anything, rather than the characteristics of the new equipment. Agree.....it's all mental....a blade is a blade is a blade....Rory's just not as good as everyone expected him to be....especially The Dark Side who have a $220M 10 year commitment. Assuming one's playing the same shafts....how different is one blade head vs. another....not much. Shafts never get the respect they deserve....IMO....a shaft is 60% of a club. Once an OEM figures out how to bring some 'sexiness" to shafts...others will follow suit. I'm surprised no OEM has brought out a set of adjustable iron heads like they have done in drivers, FW and hybrids....I love the ease of adjusting or switching shafts on my Jetspeed driver. Oh ya....you are truly CONFUSED if you want Ms. Pouty Face to be your next wife.

I can kind of guess my future wife actually plays for the other team. But that's okay, i will continue to profess my undying love for her even if the feeling cannot be reciprocate.
