Tseng Playing For Japanese Children**

/

We're only two days from the Monopoly Money Cup and I'm a bit shocked that the LPGA didn't figure out a way to call an audible and make the event about helping those impacted by the tragedy in Japan. Word No. 1 Yani Tseng is going to do her part, according to this unbylined AFP story:

While researching the charity she would play for in this week's unique 54-hole event, Tseng saw the devastation in Japan and chose to support Japanese children through UNICEF programs that provide safe drinking water.

"I was touched when researching charities and I looked at the website of the UNICEF Tap Project," Tseng said.

"After seeing what happened in Japan, I want to utilize UNICEF's global expertise to provide emergency relief to those children on the ground in Japan.

"I have a soft spot in my heart for children so I hope my play in Phoenix can help this great cause."
