With one tournament in the books for the LPGA season, it’s all coming up Korda…Jessica Korda, that is. The young American vaulted 16 spots up the Rolex Rankings into the #24 position. Naturally, by winning the year’s only event to date, she also leads most of the important LPGA statistical categories like the Money List, scoring and Race to the CME Globe. Other leaders include Lexi Thompson in driving distance, Julieta Granada in driving accuracy and Michelle Wie in greens in regulation. In a stat that should surprise nobody, Lydia Ko leads the Rookie of the Year points race. Get used to that. They could just give her that award now. Here are the top 3 in various LPGA categories, followed by the Top 50 Rolex Rankings
