This week the LPGA moves to San Francisco, California for the playing of the LPGA MEDIHEAL Championship. Last year was the inaugural playing of this event, and it had one of the most exciting finishes of the year. Minjee Lee came from three strokes behind to catch Lydia Ko and force a playoff., The back nine showed why Inbee is way ahead of So Yeon, right now. When she gets an a roll she feeds off it. So Yeon for reason seems to go into a prevent mode., This tournament has the return to the LPGA of both Jin Young Ko and Jeong Eun Lee6. My field rating is 63%, making it the 3rd strongest non-major field of the year. Believe it or not the ShopRite and Walmart were ranked higher) It rates 74% from the LPGA Priority List, but just 52% from the Rolex Rankings., In spite of the low field rating, there will be some LPGA stars on the course this week. They include: Jin Young Ko Jeongeun Lee6 Brooke Henderson Ariya Jutanugarn Moriya Jutanugarn Carlota Ciganda Nasa Hataoka Patty Tavakanakit Jennifer Kupcho A Lim Kim Top players choosing to skip the event this week include: Nelly Korda Jessica Korda Sei , My field rating for this tournament id 49.5%. Twelve of the top 25 players from the LPGA Priority List, and ten of the top 25 from the current Rolex Rankings will be teeing it up. It was advertised as a full field event, but the field is just 108 players. Jodi Ewart Shadoff has just dropped out and is replaced by first alternate Bianca Pagdanganan., Post by 18majors on Dec 6, 2018 22:58:15 GMT. 18majors God. Posts: 12,342.
