“Anyone with even the slightest hint of politeness should have told their teammates in advance. He shouldn’t let other team players hear that he can’t play.”
The Hanwha LifePlus International Crown, an international women’s professional golf tournament hosted by the LPGA Tour, will be held at Harding Park TPC in San Francisco, USA from the 5th to the 8th (Korean time).
In the International Crown, 8 countries participate, with 4 players per team, and the top 2 countries in the group stage advance to the semifinals to determine the winner through a tournament. Group A is the United States, Sweden, England and China, and Group B is South Korea, Japan, Thailand and Australia.
There is a rupture in the England team. Georgia Hall and Charlie Hull, who are regarded as England’s one-two punchers, announced that they would not attend the match on April 30 at the same time as if they had promised.
Hall said, “I’ve struggled with pain in my left foot for a few weeks,” and Hall said, “I’m not feeling well lately, so I’m going home to see a doctor.”
The loss of these two players is a huge blow for the English team. Hall is ranked 10th in the world and Hull is 17th. The other two players are Jody Ewart Sadoff (45th) and Bronte Law (103rd).
England team officials scrambled to find a replacement player. Ellis Hewson and Liz Young, who play on the European women’s tour, joined, and their world rankings are 172nd and 216th, respectively. The International Crown England’s average world ranking was 43.7, but after a player change, it dropped to an average of 136.ㅋㅋㅋ벳
Hall is expected to return immediately after the International Crown and Hull in three to four weeks. It hurts, but it’s hard to understand how two close friends fall out at the same time as if they made a promise. In the women’s golf world, there are also doubts that there is something creaking within the team.
Sadov indirectly criticized the two players, saying, “I planned the first half of this year’s season around this tournament.” “I know the new players are very patriotic and will fight with everything,” said Bronte Law.
The Hanwha Life Plus International Crown, a women’s national golf competition, started in 2014 and was suspended after the 2018 championship won by Korea, but resumed after five years. The total prize money for the tournament is $2 million.
Korea’s Jinyoung Ko, Hyoju Kim, Inji Jeon, and Hyejin Choi will compete. Korea has to compete with Japan and Thailand, who are on the rise in Group B. Australia, where Lee Min-ji and Hannah Green play, is also not easy.
