@woahnelly Curious that your SBS Golf promo video = geo-restricted i.e. i needed to change my VPN to "USA" to view it!

 

And also curious ... that Bang Shil-sil (that KLPGA phenom featured in that 3-way prize fight) has a name that Google-translates as "#Security Room"??)

 

..."Bang" = translates as "Room" in Korean ... e.g. i think "K-Bang" (or  노래방 (noraebang)?)= shorthand/slang for "Karaoke Room"?

Here is the opening hole from the trifecta. 

 

I guess Battleship SS Bang hit her original shot OB 

 

Youmin looks smaller than Jeen, but hits it just as far.

Looks like J. Ko was speaking to junior golfers in Korea.

Dude to her right doesn't look impressed.

 

Is she in court? What has she been charged with, is that why she's not playing much right now?

Guilty until proven innocent.

The veteran Jiyai is certainly pushing for an Olympics spot. She is playing on the KLPGA this week (t-26 after 2 rounds). This is the 5th different league she's competed on in 2024. (OZ, LET, LPGA, KLPGA, JLPGA). Rack up those miles girl!

"KLPGA" so nice ... it's mentioned twice! 🙂

Koreans have developed a love for things Parisien eg this KPop star who sings in French "Stella Jang" (this song in French is co-written by Stella). 

 

The bakery/cafe franchise "Paris Baguette" (beloved by Nelly Korda) = Korean?

Is this event best-known as The Dinah Shore ... the Kraft-Nabisco... or the ANA Inspiration?

Always was, and always will be the Chevron! Now let me get back to watching the Coca-Cola Masters.

"I've always dreamed of winning the Chevron Golf"

 

This is only the 2nd year of Chevron name. Somehow I expected bigger dreams.

🤔

Won’t this always be the Dinah?

[Titleist_PT23]

SYR's posts are almost always in Korean these days; can tell where the heart is (some had questioned if she'd stay in the US).  To say good-bye next week at The Chevron...

Interesting they didn't put former world No. 1 in the list of accolades.

I had never paid much attention to SYR until a few years back I followed her in SF at Lake Merced. First group out on Thursday. 7 birdies the front, 2 on the back, easy (and I mean easy) looking 63. Entire round she was graceful, dignified, even a little shy. Wonderful to watch. 👍
