Kia Classic Preview, Pairings & Discussion Thread

This week the LPGA moves to the state of California for the playing of the Kia Classic. Cristie Kerr will be trying to defend the title she won last year, when she birdied the 13th, 14th, 15th, and 16th holes on Sunday, to finish 2 strokes better than Mirim Lee, and 3 strokes better than Lydia Ko. Her score of -20 under par was a new tournament record.

Here is my preview:
