(2013年12月4日，新北市訊) 集合今年台灣高壇僅見之最堅強卡司的裙襬搖搖2013世界女子高球名人賽，明天將在新北市美麗華球場點燃戰火，由總獎金20萬美元的名人公益慈善逐洞賽打頭陣。我國球星曾雅妮(Yani Tseng)將於上午8:30與美國好手柯達(Jessica Korda)、韓國小天后崔羅蓮(Na Yeon Choi)與韓國名將朴喜映(Hee Young Park)，在壓軸的「2013單輪最低桿挑戰賽」組爭奪10萬美元獎金；球后朴仁妃(Inbee Park)則將在上午8:15的「頂尖對決」組中，與紐西蘭籍韓裔職業新星高寶璟(Lydia Ko)、韓巡賽賞金后張Ha Na(Ha Na Jang)及我國的盧曉晴(Teresa Lu)，共同角逐10萬美元獎金。 上個月在日本美津濃精英賽拿下個人生涯首座LPGA冠軍的盧曉晴表示，她長期在日巡賽出賽本週回到台灣後，面對台灣熱情球迷的加油打氣，感到相當溫馨，但今天讓她困擾多時的推桿還不太好，因此配對賽後她特別前往練習果嶺練習了20分鐘。 16歲的高寶璟則表示，主辦單位這次設計的球場裝置藝術讓整座球場與比賽變得與眾不同，她相當喜歡，今天的配對賽天氣極佳，她也特別拍了好幾張照片。高寶璟表示美麗華球場的果嶺速度比她想像要快，且因為果嶺四週與果嶺前的長草區難度頗高，因此進攻果嶺短桿的精準度極為重要。 此次比賽特別擦上五彩繽紛指甲彩繪的朴仁妃則透露，她很期待明天之個人生涯首場逐洞賽，因為她不但可以為週五開始的正式比賽熱身，更因為一半的獎金將捐給慈善機構，讓她覺得特別有意義。 今天美麗華球場天氣晴朗無風，大會在上午舉行開球儀式，由新北市副市長侯友宜、大會名譽會長吳伯雄、大會會長王政松、台灣女子職業高爾夫協會理事長劉依貞、韓國KLPGA副會長姜春子，與曾雅妮、崔羅蓮、朴仁妃、克萊茉與柳簫然等球星聯手開球，隨後舉行職業業餘配對賽，結果韓國選手金世煐搭配王美蓉、李明澐、包偉銘與高坤勇，拿下隊際冠軍。 Swinging Skirts 2013 World Ladies Masters Star players look forward to having fun at Celebrity Charity Skins Game (December 4, 2013; New Taipei City) Swinging Skirts 2013 World Ladies Masters, featuring the strongest field this year in Taiwan, will kick things off with the Celebrity Charity Skins Game tomorrow at the Miramar G&C. The USD 200,000 Skins Game will feature Taiwan’s Yani Tseng, Jessica Korda of the US, Na Yeon Choi and Hee Young Park of South Korea in the “Go Low” group; World no. 1 player Inbee Park, Korean tour order of merit winner Ha Na Jang, Taiwan’s Teresa Lu and teen phenom Lydia Ko will square off in the “Tour Champions” group. Both groups will offer USD 100,000 each in prize money, half of which will be donated to charity. Teresa Lu, who won her first-ever LPGA win in Japan’s Mizuno Classic last month, said she felt very warm and happy to come home to play in front of her hometown fans after spending most of the year touring in Japan. However, Lu is still not feeling comfortable with her putting today, so she went straight to the practice green to work on her putting after completing her pro-am tournament. 16-year-old Lydia Ko said she is very impressed with the fabulous installation art on display this week at the golf course;“it is very special; unlike anything I have seen elsewhere in the world. The golf course is in great condition, but the green is faster than I thought, and the rough around the green is quite tough.” Meanwhile, Inbee Park, sporting an eye-catching colorful fingernails this week, will get her first taste of the skins game tomorrow. “I am really looking forward to it because it is not only a good warm-up for the tournament, it is for very good cause and junior golf.” Under clear blue sky, tee-off ceremony of the Swinging Skirts 2013 World Ladies Masters took place this morning, with New Taipei City mayor Yo-yi Ho, Tournament Honorary chairman Po-Hsiung Wu, Tournament chairman Johnson Wang, TLPGA chairperson Yi-Chen Liu, Korean KLPGA representative, as well as Yani Tseng, Na Yeon Choi, Inbee Park, Paula Creamer and So Yeon Ryu teeing off in twosomes.
