The LPGA Moves to Singapore... and Back to Prime Time

At least, it is top time right here inside the US. The HSBC Women?S World Championship in Singapore is the tour's ultra-modern prevent at the Asian Swing. And it's a limited-discipline event with most effective sixty three gamers.

But wow, are those sixty three players desirable!

Inbee Park

Tony Jesselli has achieved his normal match precis, so I'll hyperlink you to that publish right here. I'll recognition on what I see because the principal storylines this week.

The one on the way to get the most interest is Inbee Park's return to movement. Inbee hasn't performed given that ultimate year's RICOH Women?S British Open because of a number of accidents she turned into suffering with, and -- if I take into account successfully -- medical doctors instructed her she simply had to relaxation. The true news right here is that she's pain-free. Although she's performed a bit in South Korea, she still expects to be a piece rusty... However you in no way be counted Inbee out.

She IS the protecting champion, in the end. You can get a fuller update on her at this hyperlink.

The different huge tale is that we ought to see a change at the top of the Rolex Rankings this week. Here are the contemporary Top4 and their common factors:

  1. Shanshan Feng, 7.33
  2. Lexi Thompson, 7.23
  3. Sung Hyun Park, 6.67
  4. So Yeon Ryu, 6.59
And then there's another group about a point back.

I don't know precisely what number of factors are up for grabs this week, however I suppose it is secure to mention that Lexi ought to take over the lead with a win. The Top3 are grouped together, so we ought to get to look them play both Thursday or Friday.

Actually, that would be either tonight (Wednesday) or Thursday, since GC's live coverage starts tonight at 10:30pm ET .

And this week, it might not have to compete with the Olympics.
