The LPGA holds their Tour Championship next week so that is the closing week for players to qualify... And only seventy two gamers will make it. That would not genuinely help everyone even though; the sector is quite much set considering the fact that this week's occasion, the Lorena Ochoa Invitational, hosts handiest 35 of the pinnacle players plus one amateur. Only Juli Inkster (with a 3rd) and Alejanda Llaneza (with a win or second) can nevertheless make the field.
However, there are a few vital spots up for grabs this week.
The Top9 in subsequent week's event all have a mathematical threat of winning the new Race to the CME Globe. LPGA.Com is a bit pressured over how many gamers nonetheless have a chance of creating that group -- this put up says it is 13 even as this post says it is 14. However, both posts agree that Azahara Munoz, Lexi Thompson, Cristie Kerr, and Suzann Pettersen are outdoor looking in.
The Top3 can take it all next week in the event that they simply win the Tour Championship. (Just like the Top5 at the PGA Tour's Tour Championship.) Stacy Lewis and Inbee Park are locks; Lydia Ko is presently in 3rd but Michelle Wie can take over that spot with a win this week and Lydia completing 5th or worse.
In addition, of the huge awards haven't begun to be settled:
- The Vare Trophy (for scoring) is down to a battle between Stacy Lewis, Inbee Park, and Michelle Wie.
- The Rolex Player of the Year will go to either Stacy Lewis or Inbee Park. Inbee needs a Top5 finish in at least one of these two last tournaments in order to have a chance.
