Add another distinction to South Korea’s dominance in the women’s game.
With reigning U.S. Women’s Open champion Jeongeun Lee6 moving up a spot in this week’s Rolex Women’s World Rankings, South Korea becomes the first nation to concurrently hold the top three spots in the world rankings, according to the LPGA.
Jin Young Ko is ranked No. 1 for the 10th week in a row (22 weeks overall), with Sung Hyun Park at No. 2 and Lee6 now at No. 3.
The Rolex Rankings were introduced in 2006.
Ko isn’t in the field at this week’s Volunteers of America Classic outside Dallas, but Park is back as the defending champion.
