Singapore – Lim Kim tamed the whirlwind and shot four shots on Thursday with a one-stroke lead after the first round of the HSBC Women’s World Championship at LPGA.
The Koreans had five birdies, but Bogey ranked 16 shots in the first shot under heavy winds on the Tanjong route in Singapore.
England’s Charley Hull was second after 69, followed by four players tied for third in the 1970s, including China’s Ruoning yin and Minjee Lee.
World No. 2 Thailand Jeeno Thitikul and New Zealand’s third-place Lydia Ko, two of the top players in the field, each with 71 shots.
“There’s a lot of wind today, and it’s hard for me, but everyone has the same situation.” “Tomorrow, I’m going to work hard.”
Jin Young Ko will try to be the first three-time champion of the Singapore event, opening with 73 and Brooke Henderson shot 74.
Defending champion Hannah Green shot 75. Angel Yin, who won the LPGA Thailand event last week, hit a 76-rate shot.
Nine out of the top 10 players in the women’s world rankings in Singapore (13 of the top 15) minus only Nelly Korda and Rose Zhang who ranked.
The final match of the LPGA’s three-swing swing this year will be held next week on Hainan Island, China.
