| Na Yeon Choi | Karen Stupples |
Na Yeon Choi v. Karen Stupples
Choi, the 2010 LPGA Official Money List and 2010 Vare Trophy winner, outlasted Catriona Matthew with a 3&2 victory. In the battle of veterans, Stupples bounced back from three down after the first three holes to come out with a 2&1 victory over Se Ri Pak. Both Choi and Stupples are playing solid and gaining positive momentum as the season progresses.

| Sun Young Yoo | Alena Sharp |
Sun Young Yoo v. Alena Sharp
Defending champion Sun Young Yoo won a hard fought, 21-hole battle with Grace Park to inch her way closer to a repeat in the winner’s circle. Sharp was in command over Mika Miyazato throughout the first-round match. In search of her first LPGA victory, Sharp will be forced to lean heavily on her consistent play and steady putting if she wants to send Yoo packing.

| Sophie Gustafson | Paige Mackenzie |
Sophie Gustafson v. Paige Mackenzie
Neither Gustafson, nor Mackenzie needed 18-holes to close out their first-round matches. While Gustafson’s résumé includes 18 international titles, don’t count out Mackenzie who is prime for a breakout season on Tour. Mackenzie ranks in the top-10 in rounds under-par while Gustafson is consistently one of the LPGA’s longest hitters.

| Michelle Wie | Anna Nordqvist |
Michelle Wie v. Anna Nordqvist
Wie and Nordqvist both closed out their Thursday matches with 4&3 victories. With both players ranking in the top-30 in birdies and rounds under-par, tomorrow’s match could go down to the wire with both players exchanging birdies. Wie’s length off the tee could give her a slight advantage over Nordqvist. Both have a year of Solheim Cup experience under their belts.
