Condensed Rd. 1 | 2024 ShopRite LPGA Classic presented by Acer

as we look at our expert moves presented by principal lot of them today for Araya ybon there and that was for birdie at three and kept it going at four wow this is a good length P for these greens because they're sneaky there are some subtle little breaks but just in the rough back up to the green and Jin young Co for birdie [Applause] short hole this one shibuno second yeah just 55 yards trying hit just short try to get it to spin now this is going to be a little downhill from here our leader arach ybon birdie in for at 59 yeah really good oh this is tremendous or you can go and make it from the Fairway and from from right to left 15 aim Kim she's stay a couple under four you've been here you've done that right yes got a couple of players Karen playing in their 18th shopr LPGA classic in fact they're playing together Angela Stanford and Cari web he off in just a bit no that it really isn't um these greens are old and they have some very subtle little breaks to them but that was no problem at all very positive looking stroke chance maybe for some good vibes for Brook this week a place where she's won as you noted drove the green two puted for birdie all right the woman of the hour here you's t-shot at seven this can be a tricky PA three they got the tea up a little bit today Tom not playing as long as I've seen it at just 169 128 to that whole location out of the rough this looks like a pretty good shot okay cross that green now NASA yeah not easy she had had a run of Mis Cuts she was just not really on anyone's radar as we watch this down the hill a chance it has got a chance you know 10 on the par two to [Applause] play oh that was tracking that's bake horse right that's what said just at the last minute there was like access denied the the big hand went up and said nope you're not we're not letting you in good deal with a good week n now this would be a great up and down after that t- shot just move I mean it just moves in seven so a chance for yub over at seven this is Henderson be a similar line to yuban gets going there coming over that slow and almost the same result and you don't want to go long it's a quick steep slope off the back back the E Oka you know hit some shots in here especially with short irons that's where it gets affected where it affects that spin up and down for the former world number one that was looked good didn't it I thought she's done it so an eagle for a 59 for ybon and I think that's what makes this day even more incredible at the 72nd hole last week for Yuka yeah it was so good as watch Hannah here oh that was pretty good too shibuno this is easier the three chips that's a loft it just onto the green let it release it's definitely all three of those are the kinds you think you got to try to make she brings to this course she knows all the little secrets to playing it well jinyang Co to the right of eight short hole but an example of what you said get into trouble hanako auno 93 right out of that right rough decent line but plenty of green to work with it's just not place you want to leave it that's why you said so many are coming up short hole third at the ninth last hole of the day for Narin on and that is going to be a 64 to start the week needing another Eagle here to shoot 59 yucas saso for par right back at it it's a really good one mm let's get over to the short 17th andeta Moresco low Amit last year's US Women's Open and she could use that one our Pai ybon will have that put for a 60 like good a birdie there she pitched it over the downhill slope for 60 she lipped out at five it wiggled offline at eight for birdie and that one catches the edge she ties the alltime shopr LPGA classic low score oh that was a different kind of hot okah hop about halfway to the hole it went up in the air but she left it in the right spot Jin young Co R TV tower is the line that was worth the wait was and take the slope of the green try and get a little bit closer well you know I think with with Brooke we expect to see her with a win and wouldn't surprise me to see her coming down the final stretch here on Sunday with a with a great chance with shots like that she made Eagle to win here one of the great stories from last week the emergence of wian meai like arai yuban Thailand but Jan as she she's known by friends been out here eight years on the LPGA Tour and really held her own I thought Karen on that Sunday when it could have I think gotten away from her and playing with richani Mii getting her first round started we've seen that a few times over the last two and a half years to 15 this is suia Chang got into the US Women's Open late last week oh and this is going to be good all playing 185 yards I don't know she could have done that I'm like King me like hitting into a bean bag when you hit a full swing there just grabs it shuts it down what shot but just the fact that she made contact was remarkable taking the pressure of yourself by doing so Rachel Keane putting together a terrific opening round playing as a sponsor's invite and that at the eighth worth noting she was not playing well going into last week's US Women's Open she said she surprised herself with how well she played perhaps it's a bit of a reset for shibuno as well yeah pretty slow put on a move to her right she really needs to get this she gets in red after that start be solid comeback cannot see the the bottom of the flag from here and back at the ninth close it out for par [Applause] saso escaping with a five this is Megan Kang at the 10th or first hole of the day expert moves presented by principal Ash bu High to start her title defense with a birdie winner of the AIG women's British Open when it was played at mfield she could see why it would fit Ashley's eye and here's Rachel Keane the Amer she'll tap in for par go to the par 59th to finish up afternoon wave getting started morning wave finishing up to the nth this is Sandra G it's nice to see Sandra back on the LPGA Tour we don't see too much of her these days is she going to finish with something special nicely done recovering from surgery this is a moment ago at the 11th the defending Champion ashy Bui par three down the hill second hardest hole on the golf course so far today PA 3es are tough they are there long oh would you believe it got to be so precise with the approach back at the 10th getting her tournament started Angel Yin this is the second for aaka fot away at the 12th and Jim Gallagher is now with this group I sure have 104 yards to one of the small screens on the golf course there and there's that there's a slope to the right not far from where that whole location is that will take the ball off the green if you're not careful [Applause] a little bit of competitivness to her to her game Jims watching Anna nordquist to 12 at the 12th we chani meai for birdie up where she left off last week tied for six last week the veteran to the ninth this is one of the three amateur sponsor invites Rachel Kean final hole of the day and that's going to run to the back of the green I would say an aggressive play and no worries with the Fescue that's dotted around this green one put for a third eagle of the day for Keane meanwhile at 12 Bo away we're glad to have you with us for this hour on peacock this is the World Golf Hall of Fame member LPGA Hall of Fame member Ki web ahuh like she never left here is Angela Stanford her record streak of consecutive Majors played ended last week at the US Women's Open at 98 okay winner here in 2003 several days to finish off the round Rachel Keen okay nicely done finished her time at Wake Forest she said 5 years two degrees 21 Team titles that she you high this is her third and she'll Escape for the park well we see that feature here at C view here is a two Champions they've all said that they've really had to change their mindset um in that you've gone from being quite defensive with with your game plan playing to the fat parts of the green not really taking on too much to this golf course you have to take on a lot Gabby Lopez second here at the 11th first bounds it took all the pace off it yeah yeah great shot W that was so Tex from Over the green at 14 budway she's going with putter because of the wedge but catch that grass so I think it's a good play okay great play absolute Beauty web another birdie it's been a tough season for Angel Yin coming back from the injury beginning of the year the foot injury and a really lofted faway wood over at the 14th Megan Kang with her second oh what a shot that's on a really good line if it's the right Club certainly is Prett good shot 13 again and Gabby Lopez second yeah good shot there from Gabby and a good chance to fight her way back with those two Bogies on the card early on such a relief not having to qualify those qualifyings are just exhausting and tough and typically they're coming in the in sandwiched in between LPGA events did she oh yeah that was what we saw last week back to Le far oh didn't convert she usually she's very good with the putter from that range we've seen her on the tour 15 here's the defending champ Ashley buai said she didn't really get too long to enjoy the victory last year to uh go through her obligations as the winner then with in Chan three major championships to her credit most of active players at the 16th the Swede lanaa Strom and there is a little slope behind that grin players are using for that Back Spin to nine Matilda castran a third shot to the par five oh no location just barely on that front portion even just a little bit sh fine came out of there fairly decent Karen the rough isn't particularly punitive right I mean you can hit good shots out of it it's just look how close you are to disaster K was really upset at not making the team in 2016 and so to have her now as a captain I think is as as going to be as rewarding as anything for for Webby right now uh back over to the 14th and the approach of Gabby Lopez going the opposite direction judged The Hop well didn't she oh she's quite long off the tea Gabby so
