Sandra Gal barely held on to defeat Katherine Hull in the first-round after having a 4-up lead through ten holes. Haeji Kang posted an upset against Rolex Rankings No. 11 In-Kyung Kim. Gal has played very well in 2010, making five of six cuts. Kang’s best finish so far this year is a T26. This match could go either way. Kang should be feeling confident after upsetting Kim, and one can only wonder how much Hull’s back-nine rally took out of Gal.
Gal and Kang tee off in the third match-up at 10:50 a.m. off the first tee.
