Sei Young Kim made a move in the Rolex Rankings this week moving up 17 spots to the No. 23 spot. It’s been 10 years since 22-year old Kim had dreamt of the exact moment of hoisting an LPGA Tour trophy. The 2015 LPGA Tour rookie beat major champion Sun Young Yoo and fellow rookie Ariya Jutanugarn in a one-hole playoff at the Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic. Kim becomes the first Rolex First-Time Winner of the season and adds the victory to her five career KLPGA wins.
Other Notable Moves:
- Lydia Ko hung on to the No. 1 spots with her tie for seventh at the Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic.
- Brittany Lincicome moved up two spots to No. 18, with her outstanding play at the Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic.
