Lotte Championship Preview, Pairings, and Discussion Thread

[tonyj5]

The LPGA moves to Hawaii this week for the playing of the Lotte Championship Presented by Hershey. Many of you may remember last year's championship when Michelle Wie won by 2 strokes over Angela Stanford. Inbee Park finished one stroke further back. Past winners of this tournament include Suzanne Pettersen (2013), and Ai Miyazato (2012).

Here is my preview:
