I can only imagine that this tournament was the last time anyone ever described Minjee Lee as 'underdog' lol

I enjoy watching these matches at Lake Merced, a course I've played twice, so it's nice to recognise the holes.

One thing the networks always forget about the area is the Lincoln Park golf course. It's a Muni that plays tougher than what's on the card and when the City puts some money into maintenance is a great place to play.

Amazing to know that 3 out of 4 semi finals have Korean DNA.

Minjee currently is much more successful than Alison. Alison has a beautiful textbook swing but unfortunately she has yet to win a LPGA tourney to date.

Allison gifted her four holes in a row. Also some bad luck, she hit a great putt but the cup was raised (volcano effect) on the 35th hole
