JLPGA: The Yokohama PRGR Ladies Cup

Once again, the JLPGA event this week--the Yokohama PRGR Ladies Cup--will be getting more of my attention than usual, thanks to another gap week in the LPGA schedule. The pairings for the opening round, when paired with my handy-dandy guide to the JLPGA site, allow me to state with some confidence that the most interesting groups to follow today in Japan will be:

9:21 am: Miho Koga, Bo-Bae Song, Erina Hara
9:30 am: Yuri Fudoh, Na Zhang, Mayu Hattori
9:39 am: Sakura Yokomine, Akane Iijima, [Update 3/21/08 ? Ji-Yai Shin (!)]
9:48 am: Mi-Jeong Jeong, Akiko Fukushima, Shinobu Moromizato
9:57 am: Shiho Ohyama, Chie Arimura, ?

The winner's likely to come from one of these groups, particularly with Momoko Ueda probably on her way (if not already) back to the States, Miki Saiki not in the field, and Hyun-Ju Shin with an unaccountably early tee time.
