Grace Kim, of the Avondale Golf Club, will play the first two rounds at Bonville Golf Resort with fellow Australian Hannah Green and prodigious Dutchwoman Anne Van Dam.

Kim, a 2018 Youth Olympic Games gold medal winner, said she was both excited and nervous to be paired with two of the tournament's biggest hitters starting Thursday morning at 9:7 a.m. , local hour.

"I played a practice game with Hannah at the Vic Open two weeks ago, so I know how she plays, but I've never seen Anne play in person", Kim said.

“But I follow her on Instagram, and I know a lot of people say she has the best swing in the world and I think I agree. "

“The video that she released a few weeks ago that went viral was just amazing. I kept it on my phone! "

NSW Interstate Team member Stephanie Kyriacou will also get a taste of the game at the elite level when she teams up with Madelene Sagstrom and Rebecca Artis in the next starting group.

Other renowned groups include Laura Davies, Ashleigh Buhai and Sarah Kemp, who will start at 7:10 a.m., and Beth Allen, Meghan MacLaren and Stephanie Bunque, Victorian amateur star, among the players of the post- noon to 12:30 p.m.
