Friday night update: The women’s tournament got underway, but rain has shut things down with the last golfers through 16 holes. USA’s Nelly Korda leads at -17, followed by Japan’s Mone Inami at -16. However, if the tournament is stopped due to weather, they would go to the 54-hole leaderboard, in which case Korda wins gold and India’s Aditi Ashok wins silver.
UPDATE: The weather remains a concern and it is still possible the tournament could be shut down at 54 holes. If that happens, USA’s Nelly Korda would win gold and India’s Aditi Ashok would win silver.
While the weather is threatening, so far no one is threatening Team USA’s Nelly Korda so far at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics women’s golf event.
Due to the potential of inclement weather, tee times for the final round on Saturday have been moved up by an hour. The first group is scheduled to hit the course at 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, which means 6:30 a.m. Saturday in Tokyo.
But even that might not be enough to get the full event in, as the official forecast document from the Tokyo Olympic Committee doesn’t look so great. “There is a possibility of lightning” is on there, with lots of cloud cover and rain projected.
If the final round is unable to be completed either on Saturday or Sunday, the scores after three rounds will be what is used to declare a winner. Nelly Korda’s -15 would be the winning score, with Aditi Ashok of India in silver medal position at -12, and Lydia Ko, Hannah Green, Emily Kristine Pedersen, and Mone Inami tied at -10 for bronze.
Below is a full list of tee times for Round 4 of women’s golf at the Tokyo Olympics on Saturday, August 7th.
