It would be easy to say that there are four nobodies in the HSBC Women’s World Match Play semifinals at Wykagyl tomorrow. It would be easy to wonder whether there will be more spectators or caddies, whether fans will be outnumbered by those everywhere HSBC pyramid and triangle advertisements.

But that wouldn’t be entirely four. Yes, the four are relatively anonymous, and the casual fan probably can’t spell some of their names, probably can’t pronounce some of their names—Maria Hjorth, who beat Port Chester’s Meaghan Francella in the quarterfinals today, says her name “Yort”—or pick them out of a lineup.

But Mi Hyun Kim is still alive, and she’s won eight LPGA tournaments.

I know, I know. I had to look that up before I believed it myself.

But the four remaining are all deserving, and the champion will certainly be worthy for having gone six rounds of match play undefeated after two more rounds tomorrow.

And there will be fans, even if the place isn’t packed. It hasn’t been packed all week. But as the number of matches dwindle, those who come are confined to smaller areas, and thus each match has a fair number of followers. Then there are the nationalistic fans—two of the finalists are from South Korea, one from Japan, one from Sweden.

But they will miss the stars, and they will surely miss Francella, who had a large, faithful, hardy gallery for her 33 holes today.

Last year the final four at the HSBC were Lorena Ochoa, Juli Inkster, Paula Creamer and eventual champ Brittany Lincicome.

How many of HSBC’s dollars do you think the title sponsor would pay to have any one of those players at Wykagyl for its final four today?
