The Librarian is taking the week off. With a solid hold on 1st place in the CME points race, I assume she's resting for the final tournament of the season, and it's $1,000,000 bonus.

I am surprised that Michelle doesn't have a top ten.

I am surprised that Michelle doesn't have a top ten. No surprise, really. She's been nursing injuries for most of the season, and has generally played like cr*p. When she does play well, she has one bad round that sends her plummeting down the leaderboard.

You're forgetting that the CME points reset after this week so that depending on how they do in the actual Tour Championship any of the top three could walk away with the $1 million bonus. All Inbee can do is decrease the margin before the reset. With Stacy absent Sei Young could leapfrog her into third place with a win, and only with a win, but barring that she has to hold off Lexi who currently sits in fifth. No one else will be able to crack the top five, so the current standings are:
- 1. Lydia Ko 4913
- 2. Inbee Park 3944
- 3. Stacy Lewis 3510
- 4. Sei Young Kim 3167
- 5. Lexi Thompson 2827
For this week's tournament only just the top twenty and ties will accrue points, with 500 for the winner, 300 for second or T2, 190 for third or T3 and so on.

Kevin Don't see how this affects Lydia. She's first in points, and will remain so after this tournament. Inbee is in the same boat. With only 500 points to the winner, both will remain in the top 3 regardless of who finishes first and 2nd this week.

Sad to see NYC struggling. The top of the leaderboard is a mix of one real Korean, a couple of fake Koreans and a bunch of white people.

Inbee didn't look sharp, exactly, in round one, but it seems like her game is all there, she's just struggling through a little rustiness. That's very encouraging. Especially her putting seemed solid, with most of her misses still being very good attempts. All she needs to do is bring her long game a little more into focus, and she's a real threat this week. Go Inbee!! Also nice to see So Yeon Ryu positioning herself. I'm still hoping we'll get to see her win an event this year. She has two more chances. Go So Yeon! Good opening round for Minjee Lee as well. Usually rookies are toast this time of year, but she (and Sei Young) seem to be holding up nicely. Go Sisters!!!

Minjee mentioned in her post round interview that she will dial back the number of tournaments played next year. I believe she said three in a row would be the limit.

Wimp....Minjee needs to hang out with Chella. I have no idea what The Smiling Buddha does at events...he was at the CP CWO 6 days/8 hours per day.....yet he didn't go see Minjee play to see how far she can hit the ball.....he saw her walking outside the ropes a few times.

Did everyone notice that TMac was on Candy's bag.
The 3 Mexican invites are quite cute.

Hmmmmm...Badass SYK now in the mix.
Did you hear Tutta say yesterday that she enjoyed talking shite with Butch....then Tom Abbott apologized for the profanity....lol....I think Tom is always the go to guy for this task. I really like Tutta's foul potty mouth....I also enjoyed how Tutta stood her ground and didn't cower when Annika was in her face trying to get Tutta to make a concession at the Solheim,
Pernilla's BF is out of commission....was that Aza's fiance on Pernilla's bag?....Pernilla and Aza use to be travel room mates. Pernilla is quite cute but doesn't attract much attention due to maybe the classic Swedish cold fish persona.

I got up at 3 AM to watch the first round replay...the audio went silent for one second during the S.P. interview. "Here we go again", I thought! There's already a collection of her past "f" and "s" bombs on Youtube.
