Today is a link to Kent Paisley's lpga.Com article about Ko's extraordinary season... And what can be at the horizon.
To placed it truly, Jin Young Ko is at the verge of taking two records away from Annika -- statistics that defy comprehension.
Number One, she is currently ahead of Annika's file for all-time lowest real scoring average. Annika averaged 68.697 in 2002, a year wherein she won 11 instances. Note that this report, for which LPGA gamers acquire the Vare Trophy, is NOT the lowest adjusted scoring common however as an alternative the actual scoring average -- quantity of real strokes struck divided through variety of rounds performed. (For contrast, Tiger holds the PGA Tour's actual low stroke common of 68.17, set in 2000.)
Currently, Jin Young's scoring average is 68.851. She might be a part of Annika as best the second LPGA player with a sub-69 common. And (if I apprehend successfully) she plans to play four of the closing five events on the schedule, giving her 16 more rounds on the season; Paisley says she wishes handiest to common 68 for the ones rounds to conquer Annika's document.
The second document? Highest percent of veggies in law for a season. Currently, Jin Young's GIR sits at 79.Nine%, zero.2% better than Annika's report and a whopping four.7% better than Tiger's seventy five.2% set again in 2000.
That's proper. If Jin Young can hold on, she'll have the lowest-ever GIR document of ANYBODY, male or lady, in golfing records.
It's well worth noting that Jin Young has 4 LPGA wins this yr, two of which can be majors, in addition to a KLPGA win that doesn't depend toward these information. And it is also worth noting that she has already locked up the 2019 Annika Award (excellent majors overall performance) in addition to another all-time record for the longest bogey-loose streak on both the the LPGA or PGA Tour at 114 holes.
This may be another first-rate year on the LPGA, folks. And that is best Jin Young's sophomore yr...
