Choi Na Yeon within gasp of title..

CHOI Na Yeon overcame a chasing pack, as well as a four hours 40 minutes rain-delay to consolidate her lead in the Sime Darby LPGA at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club yesterday.
  Torrential rain stopped play at 10am, and only resumed at 2pm, but still, the defending champion managed a smile after a three-under 68 for a two shot lead.
  Hot on her back is fellow Korean Inbee Park, just adrift after a six-under 65 saw her move up the ranks from tied-12th overnight, on 11-under 202.
  And the lone wolf on third is Karrie Webb of Australia, who had a three-under 68 for a nine-under 204 today.
  Ai Miyazato of Japan and Suzann Pettersen of Switzerland are tied-fourth on eight-under 205.
  With 13-under 200, she did not like the idea of leading all the time.
  "Last year I had a one-shot lead going into the final, and I have also been leading for the last three days here. I don't like being chased as I prefer to chase.
  "But then, I can't control how others play, and it is a little tiring watching the leader-board all the time and the pressure it getting worse," said the Korean.
  She had four birdies and her blemish was only on the par-four 10th, where she three-putted for bogey.
  "I had a 20-footer on that hole, and came up short, tried again and missed. That was the only bogey even though I have been here for the last 12 hours (the round started at 7am and ended at 7pm due to rain).
   And how did she kill her time?
  "I actually took a short nap and it did help me become more focussed. It is really difficult to play under a steady drizzle, and luckily I manage to finish my round today and start fresh in the final.
  "I am not going to think about the two-shot lead when I start the final journey, as I will erase all the scores from my mind and start a fresh game. That will make things much easier," said the champion in standing.
  She promised to be more aggresive today, and that could just see her sail away with the title again.

Inbee, the only one in-form...

IN reality, Korean Inbee Park was the only player who was singing in the rain yesterday, as she fired six birdies and was bogey free to charge up the leader-board from 12th to second.
  Her six-under 65 was the lowest round of the day, as she birdied six out of her last seven holes of the day.
  "The greens were much more slower after the rain, but I think I prefer the rain to the heat here as it makes me more comfortable. I much prefer a rainy day than a hot one," said the portly Korean.
  She did not make any birdies on the front nine: "I think thats how I played in all three rounds. But I had a feeling that the birdies would come, and they did today," said Inbee.
  From out of the wilderness, Inbee in in contention for the title today.
  "This golf course is scoreable and also hard at the same time. I still need a lot of birdies tomorrow (today) to win. So I will just go out and play more aggressive with short-irons and try to make them count.
  "When I came to Malaysia, I expected and also prepared for rain delays. There was a lot of food for us, and I ate to past time. As for my goal this year, I just want to keep my No 1 position on the Money List and winning the Sime Darby LPGA would help me achieve it," said Inbee whose earnings total a whopping US$4,650,252.

Jean cracks under pressure, again...

THE four Malaysian players blew up big time with bogies and double bogies at a rain-soaked Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club.
 The best placed Malaysian was still amateur Aretha Pan, on joint-56th, after a four-over 75 brought her total to eight-over 221.
 She had five bogies on the second, third, fifth, 11th and 18th and a double bogey on the 17th.
 Aretha's birdies were on the first, 10th and 16th.
 "Not a bad day, considering that I could not read  the speed of the greens after the long rain-break.
  "That saw me three-putting on the greens and pulling back my score," said the amateur.
  On tied-63rd was US based pro Jean Chua, who had an eight-over 79 for  a 14-over 227 total.
  "I horrible day in the office, really bad and now I believe that if I can play good golf in Malaysia, I can play anywhere in the world," said Jean.
  It was her worst three-day score this year: "I have never played so badly this year, but still, the crowd was very supportive and many of them told me to just let loose in the final round.
  "But that's what I tried to do today (yesterday) and it did not work out. So, I am really unable to play at my home turf, not yet, sorry guys," said the US based player.
  Ainil Johani shared the same boat with Jean, after a three-over 74 in the third round.
  Amateur Sarfarina Vinota, embedded at the bottom since day one, returned another 10-over 81 for a 33-over 246 score.
