The final groups have just teed off as of 8:15 EDT (yes, that means the coverage on ABC will be tape-delayed).  Catriona Matthew bogeyed the first hole.  Might be an interesting day so stick around.

Michelle Wie and Michele Redman have made good moves today, reaching +4 but only have six holes to play so they are gunning for Top 10 finishes.  Na Yeon Choi is -2 on the day and +3 overall through 8.  Song-Hee Kim is heading south - bogeys on her first two holes to go +3.  Hee-Won Han birdied 2 and is now +2.  Even though they must be through at least a couple of holes, LPGA.com has no word on Jiyai Shin or Mika Miyazato.  Your first leaderboard check of the day looks like this:

8:25am - Christina Kim bogeyed 2 to fall three shots back.  The official WBO site shows Mika at even par but their "updating scoreboard" shows the last several groups as not having started yet.  Wake up people!  Han bogeyed 5, goes back to +3.  Maria Hjorth (another new mommy) went out in 33 and is now at +3.

8:30am - Looks like TC has gone to play golf in the rain so I'll be covering him on the live-blog front today.  No problem there.  He blogged for a couple of hours before I started so you can find the early play-by-play here.  LPGA.com just sorta caught up - Mika is being shown at even par through 4 but her card for Round Four is blank.  I guess we'll eventually know what happened.

8:35am - Ai bogeyed 3 (she's started bogey-birdie-bogey) and drops to +1.  Mika's birdie came at 3.  Shin has opened with three straight pars.  A lot of delays on a lot of cards - Karrie Webb birdied 6 to reach +3 and parred the next two but the board just now updated to show her in the tie for eighth place.

8:45am - Haven't gone into much detail about how great this win would be for Catriona Matthew.  I was wrong when I said she was playing only her second LPGA event of the year.  She actually played in the HSBC Champions event in March when she was seven months pregnant!  She finished T45.  Hell, she won the Brazil Cup exhibition in January.  An amazing woman.  Catriona is from Scotland and should be getting a lot of support from the gallery.  This would be her first LPGA victory since the 2004 Wendy's Championship and the third of her career.

8:55am - We seem to be having another scoring delay.  According to the time stamp at the top, the board hasn't been updated for 25 minutes.  The early final scores look quite familiar to those of the first three days.  Lots of 76-79s.  Brittany Lincicome put up a 69, only the seventh round under 70 all week.

9:00am - The WBO site shows Matthew at -2, Mika at -1, Shin and Ai at +1, Creamer and Christina at +2.  LPGA.com just updated but the time stamp is from eight minutes ago.  As my sister-in-law likes to say, "Jeezum Pete!"

9:05am - WBO reports Ai is now even par, two shots back.  Is everybody in the U.K. on their site today?  The loading speed of their board is dialup-terrible.  Creamer is now shown at +1, down by three.

9:10am - Choi birdied 10 and is +2.  Redman birdied 16 and joins the group at +3.  The LPGA board just caught up to within about two minutes but still shows Mika at even par.  Matthew's second bogey was at 3, and she's since parred two in a row.  Shin is +1 because of a bogey at 5.  I'm gonna have to stay away from the WBO site or my head is going to explode.  Will just have to be patient with the LPGA crawl.

9:15am - Since you're probably as confused as I am, here is what the LPGA shows right now:

9:25am - Creamer birdied 7 to go +1 and Choi birdied 10 to go +2.  Just noticed that Choi is tied for sixth after shooting 80 on Thursday.  Han birdied 10 to reach +2.  Michelle Wie finished with a 69 and is the early clubhouse leader at +4.  Redman double-bogeyed 18 or she would have that honor.  Christina is +2 because she bogeyed 4 and 5 (+3 on the day).

9:30am - Two in a row for Han - she's at +1 down by three after a birdie at 11.  Two in a row for Ai Miyazato - she's at -1 and within one of the lead after birdies at 6 and 7.  Mika birdied 6 (two holes ago - damn board) to also move to -1.  Jane Park's late bid to make the Solheim team appears to be ending.  Needing to at least tie for second place, she is +3 on the day and +5 overall T17.

9:35am - X-Tina turns it around with a birdie at 7, +1 now.  McPherson birdied 11 to go +2.  Hee Young Park birdied 10 and 11 to join her at +2.  Must be setup pretty easy at the first two back-nine holes - lots of red there today.

9:40am - Shinobu Moromizato started the day on the fringe of contention but just went out in 39.  Creamer only parred 10 - that might haunt her later.  Shin parred 7 - she birdied it the first three days so that doesn't bode well for the defending champion's chances today.  Choi bogeyed 12 (two holes ago - again) so she's basically done at +3 with four to play.

9:45am - Hjorth is now +2 - she snuck in birdies at 13 and 15 while the scoreboard wasn't looking.  Going on ten minutes without an update now.

9:50am - Kerr shot 69 and is now the clubhouse leader at +3 T11.  Mika blew up - a bogey at 9 and double at 10 (double-ouch!) drops her to +2.  Shin bogeyed 8 and has made the turn at +2.  Here's how they stand with the holes completed in parentheses:

10:05am - Another lull.  Wie's performance this week (currently T15) makes her a lock for a Solheim captain's pick in my book.  Beth Daniel could shock me but aside from that magic word "experience", there isn't a single reason to pick anybody ahead of Michelle.  The only shock bigger than leaving off Wie would be for Daniel to leave off Juli Inkster.

Matthew bogeyed the "easy" 10th.  Tied for the lead with Ai Miyazato at -1.  Shin birdied 10 and is two back at +1. 

This is the point where I believe the ABC coverage will pick up, so I'm going to close this post and start Part Two of the Live-Blog.  Then I'll be able to go back and fill in that post with what I see during the coverage.
