I got a feeling Atthaya Thitikul drops a low round and wins in a playoff at -14 or -15.

I got a feeling that your feeling is looking pretty accurate for now.

[Argonne69]

Rough day for the Smiling Cinderella. +8? Ouch. 

 

The course does have teeth. Plenty of players over par today.

She'll need a mistake from both nanna and Na, the 16th is a gimme but should be close

Ahhh, but despite going low so far, does she realistically have enough holes left to be the clubhouse leader and pressure Nanna?   I would think realistically, she needs to birdie 17 and 18 to pull 1-shot ahead of Koertsz Madsen.   But, Nanna could stumble a little too and we see a playoff.

[Golf Dino]

Further to the post below . . . Atthaya is averaging 271 yards off the tee this week.

Well so far it's looking good for Nanna . . . but still so much more golf to play.  Maude Aimee just bogeyed to take her out of sole second place. . . 

 

Just looking at the stats for today and the Top 6 players at this point . . . the shortest player is JYK averaging just a little over 252 yards off the tee.  Here are the others (as of this point in the event):

Pajaree:   272 yds
Na Rin:   267 yds
Maude Aimee:  286 yds
Charley:  277 yds
Nanna:   272 yds

 

[Stooch]

You gotta be careful on the 17th too, there's a sneaky OB with a bad tee shot.

I somehow came into possession of that cassette tape back in the late 80's. I swear I did not buy it.

[Golf Dino]

Well, I think we learned that @JungleJimbo was teenager in the late 1980s and early 1990s given his fondness for Roxette!  😛 

Us older folk were thinking that the "Sha nana na na" ... was something else 
 

 

 

[Golf Dino]

@Argonne69  Damned you!! 🤣   I found the clip on my mobile forgetting that I was on my laptop so I was beat to the punch . . . "just missed it by that much"!  🤣

Well kudos to her . . . she's birdied 17 now she heads to 18 with a share of the on-course lead!

Heck of a par on the 18th. Now she can only wait and hope.

I would have 4 putted that, no doubt. 🤣

The bogey on 4, hurts just a little more right now lol

[Argonne69]

Oh, Pajaree. Waste of a great tee shot on the 16th. 

 

Nanna just opened the door a bit.

You gotta make those Nanna, now the fairway on 18 just got a little smaller 🙂

[Argonne69]

Nanna will get relief from the cart path on the 17th, but her lie it's going to be dicey in the dirt. 

 

[Argonne69]

Just when it looked like Jin Young was going to do the unthinkable, shoot three straight rounds in the 70s, she looks like she's going to start a new 60s streak. 

 

[Golfer4Life]

I heard something about metal spikes.

 

What was that about?  Thanks!

They were talking about Nanna's footing in the dirt, and how soft spikes weren't particularly useful. They mentioned that Christina Kim may be the only remaining player using metal spikes, and that there's talk about banning them. 

 

Oh, they also joked about not being able to wear metal spikes in the clubhouse. 

 

[Argonne69]

Nail biting time. No automatic two putt coming up for Nanna. 

 

[Argonne69]

Wow. Big push. Playoff time.

She's gonna wish she had a lemon after that one. 🤬

Nerves.  I missed the putt . . . but was it pushed to the right that badly?? 

[Argonne69]

Impressive week for Na Rin and Maude-Aimee. Na Rin is going to have bad dreams about her final hole yesterday, but she seems rather unflappable. Nice bounce back today.

Not familiar with football and not sure I want an explanation 🤣

A bit of a shove, but the ball broke quite a bit. Jerry said it was going to be nearly dead straight, but it peeled off. 

 

At this point @KBong would mention how Johnny Miller would say that most putts under pressure are missed right.
