Looks like another strong field. Sei Young appears to be the only top player sitting out. Weather looks wonderful with temps in the low to upper 70s.

 

I'm going with Jin Young this week. She finished 2T last year, and is playing superb golf at the moment. Eun Hee should also be in the mix.

Imbee hasn't been playing that well this season but I'm gonna go with her, this course calls for a precise and controlled game or it will eat your lunch, maybe too short for pro men's game but a great challenge for the women. The next 2 weeks are a good chance for Lydia to pick up another win also, probably not enjoyable golf for the bombers but hey what better place to enjoy the weather and work on your tan for a couple events lol

Lol. I'm currently in St Andrews, and I posted from my phone, and I couldn't find the yardage on the LPGA's mobile website. It's pretty bad. I assume it's the same as last year.

 

Oy. If I bothered to actually look at the course layout, it would be staring me in the face. In my limited defense, I've been a little preoccupied.

I'm not her doctor, heck I'm not a doctor at all, but it seemed like she rushed to get back twice after the surgery and now is doing the proper thing by getting rest. Hopefully she has no timetable on her return.

Inky all the way! At ANA she was contending with just two good rounds. No stress here and I think it can suit her game. She's done well at tough courses before.

 

Another tourney where just about every favorite I have is playing, so lot of finger crossing.

 

Su, you have one mission: have a good fun four rounds! You can do it

 

This is just Hee Young's fourth tourney of the year. Hope she has a great time and luck. Hee Young is such a bright spot.

 

And good luck to Moriya on her defense. Was happy to see her get this win.

 

Argonne, hope you're having an awesome time there!

Mission accomplished. My 500th course played. Now, back to our regularly scheduled program.

Puzzling to say the least.

 

Did we ever get an answer to this or get to the bottom of it?

She still has a way to go to into the tournament match-up section on betting sites, that's where they put the top players and top tier talent. Too bad I probably would have picked Kristen this week, I think her game suits this course and she could have a good finish, I would have liked the odds I got for her too lol. The 2 sites I use for golf betting, have very bad match-ups this week for the LPGA and with the team event on the PGA I'll probably concentrate on Tennis lol. I generally don't bet on who will win the events it's too much of a crap shoot and you guys know my success rate with my picks each week in the tournament threads, so it would be wasting money lol

> Muni got added to the field. She didn't play well in the Monday qualifier, and was a ways down the reserve list. I assume some of the other reserves were not in LA when someone dropped out (anyone else besides Wie)?

 

Monday Qualifier has no bearings on the alternate list for the tournament. The alternate list for the tournament is based on LPGA priority list, which Muni is No. 156.

When Muni played Monday Qualifier, both No. 154 and No. 155 were already off the alternate list and made into the final field. Essentially, Muni became the No. 1 alternate.

Muni just needed one more player to withdraw and thankfully she got it.

OK thanks. I knew the two things were separate, but the I didn't realize Muni was the #1 alternative at that point. The list on the tournament site had her as the 8th alternate (right behind the two at 154 and 155. I guess this list was as of 16 April though), so I thought she had little chance of playing.

Lilia Vu, No. 154 on the priority list, was on Monday Qualifier list; she withdrew Monday morning before qualification started. It caught my eyes.

Good news for Muni; better news would be to make the cut.

By the way, Mo Martin withdrew due to lingering back injuries.
