Tony Jesselli, as usual, has a preview of the event over at his blog. And if you were watching Golf Central Tuesday evening, you may have heard that the Ko Olina Golf Club has put a plaque in the 18th fairway at the spot where Sei Young Kim hit that amazing eagle shot in the playoff to steal the event right out from under Inbee Park's nose.
In case you've forgotten the shot, here's the LPGA's video. It shows the chip that got her into the playoff, then the eagle. Kim's own disbelief alone is worth the price of admission:
Anyway, since the event is in Hawaii -- five time zones from the East Coast of the USA -- GC's live broadcast runs in prime time, starting at 7pm ET tonight. (The event runs Wednesday-Saturday because LOTTE is a South Korean company and this schedule suits South Korean TV better.) With Sei Young Kim defending and Inbee Park in the field, perhaps we'll get to see some more fireworks this year!
