As the Korean Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) Tour opened, Korean players began to make strides in the world ranking.
Park Bo-gyeom, who won the Blue Canyon Ladies Championship, jumped 52 notches from 146th to 94th in the world ranking announced on Wednesday. Ko Ji-woo, the runner-up, jumped 27 notches to 138th, while Lee Ga-young, who was the lone third, also jumped 8 notches to 107th. Hwang Yoo-min, who tied for fourth, also jumped 2 notches to 42nd, and Yoo Hyun-jo, who also tied for fourth, also jumped 6 notches to 60th.
The most noticeable change in world ranking this week is that Ko has overtaken Gino Thitikul (Thailand) to become the world's second. The two players seem to be chasing world No. 1 Nelly Korda (U.S.).
Another change that will attract attention is the reversal of rankings of Yoon In-na and Akie Iwai of Japan, who will compete for the LPGA Rookie of the Year this year. Yoon went down one notch to 26th, and Yi took the 25th position. The two players have been fighting each other over the world ranking since late last year. After Yoon started leading Yi-na late last year, the gap widened, but the chase started and the ranking eventually reversed this week. However, chances are high that this mood will change when Yoon starts to play in earnest. Due to many competitions in which she is not eligible to participate, she has only played two competitions so far. 온라인바카라
The number of top 25 Korean and Japanese players also turned around as EY took over Yoon Na. Japan ranked seventh with Ayaka Furue, 14th with Miyu Yamashita, 15th with Rio Takeda, 19th with Yuka Saso, and 25th with Akie Iwai. In contrast, Korea had four players on the 25th with Ko Jin-young at the 8th, Yoo Hae-ran at the 9th, Yang Hee-young at the 13th, and Shin Ji-ae at the 24th.
Depending on the performance of "Yoon-na and the Japanese trio" who will compete for the LPGA Rookie of the Year this year, a hot match between Korea and Japan is expected to take place in the world ranking.
