LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. LPGA commissioner Mike Whan predicted the new Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions would be the biggest party on tour.Apparently, he wasnt just talking about the nightlife.In Thursdays first round of the LPGAs season opener, tour winners mixed with celebrities and sports stars in a day of more rollicking fun than youll see in any other womens event this year.Today was a bit wilder than normal, and I liked it, Danielle Kang said after opening with a 3-under 68, which left her three shots behind co-leaders Brooke Henderson and Eun-Hee Ji. I had a blast.Kang played with country music star Lee Brice serenading her with his hit songs. She heard renditions of Rumors, I Dont Dance and other tunes.Lee was singing while I was hitting, Kang said.
Mardy Fish led the celebrity field with 39 points in the modified Stableford format. That amounted to 68 on his regular scorecard. The newly named U.S. Davis Cup captain is going for his third Diamond Resorts title.Golf Channels Blair ONeal, NHL legend Jeremy Roenick and former MLB pitcher Mark Mulder were each two points back.Roenick joked that his best chance to win is getting in the heads of Fish, Mulder and the other favorites.I need to talk a bit more about how good they are, how proud I am to be playing with them, how I am in awe of them, Roenick said. Then, hopefully, theyll get big heads.Kang summed up how different this tournament is when asked about her closing bogey after mis-clubbing on the 18th tee, a par 3.I forgot the number on the tee box, said Kang, who didnt bother stepping off to re-set. I don't know what I was doing. I just hit it. I usually wouldn't ... I mean, it kind of takes you out of your routine and all that. It's OK. Sometimes, you've got to roll with the punches. This type of tournament, you've got to have fun.
