Rolex Rankings 3.19.2012: Yani Maintains #1, So Yeon Ryu Moves Into Top 20

Yani Tseng with 2012 RR Donnelley LPGA Founders Cup trophy

With all the stops and starts due to inclement weather, it threw off my schedule and I didn’t do a post on the final round of the 2012 RR Donnelley LPGA Founders Cup. So I will put pictures from the fourth round at the end of the rankings here as well as some videos throughout. Here’s my brief recap of RR Donnelley: Yani is awesome! Also, keep an eye on So Yeon Ryu…she’s moving up! Here’s the top 200:
