I'm out of the house for the rest of the afternoon. Hope she does well. Lots of golf to be played yet so anything can happen

@canefan she lipped out for her par and Korda with 3rd bird in a row for a 3vstroke lead, then went wide with her tee shot on the next hole.

@bovidae apologies.

I thought a bronze might have been possible before the final, based on the strength of Hungary and Poland. Belarus spoiled the party.

Ko birdies the 17th to go to 3rd one shot behind the co-leaders.

[gt12]

Japanese girl puts hers in the sand on the 18th.

Ko with a good drive.

[gt12]

Korder puts her drive in the short rough.

Inami is out of the bunker but has a lot left to save par.

Drops one and finishes 16 under.

[gt12]

Korder on and looking good for par at least.

[gt12]

Ko on but leaves herself with a reallly long and hard putt for birdie.

[taniwharugby]

so what do they do if they are both tied for 2nd?

Weather is fine, so I assume a playoff?

[taniwharugby]

testy putt left too...

[gt12]

Korda locks it in and Ko makes par.

Playoff for Silver.

[gt12]

Indian girl did great, she’s ranked 200th or something.

[taniwharugby]

@gt12 just a bit odd in golf having a playoff for 2nd...assume its just back down the 18th or another set hole until one falters rather than an 18 holer

Should just get two silvers

It is a bit. Was hoping that the Indian girl would birdie and the stress would go up all around.
