Let's take a quick peek-in on the Swinging Skirts LPGA Taiwan Championship. The live coverage is being carried live on GC's on-line in place of TV (the WGC has that slot). GC is just displaying repeats of the LPGA event afterward the following day.
As traditional, Tony Jesselli has a preview over at his weblog. This is a restricted field occasion and a number of top gamers are skipping it, as this is the fourth event in a seven-week stretch that spans the globe and ends on the CME Group Tour Championship. That makes this a terrific opportunity for different gamers to make up ground or sincerely attempt to get a victory.
And Jodi Ewart Shadoff is doing simply that. After a seven-underneath 65 on the first day, she is (on the time I'm writing this) eight-under for the event after six holes (simply one-under for the day). She's just shots in advance of Lydia Ko and Wei-Ling Hsu. Three pictures back is a group of six -- Ryann O'Toole, Ally MacDonald, Mirim Lee, Moriya Jutanugarn, Megan Khang and So Yeon Ryu.
I presently have the streaming video from GC on and, at the same time as the climate looks appropriate, it appears the players are suffering a piece to examine the vegetables nicely. The first-rate score I've seen to this point is Lydia's -- she's five-under for the day -- but nobody goes particularly low early of their rounds.
Still, this seems to be a completely aggressive tournament going into the weekend. The leaderboard is tightening up and with simplest 81 players within the subject, we ought to see someone get their first win this weekend.
