Shin Reclaims Top Spot in Rolex Golf Ranking

Shin Ji-yai has reclaimed the top spot in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Ranking following her win at the Evian Masters on Sunday.

The South Korean golfer took the number-one spot from Ai Miyazato of Japan after having been ranked fourth just last week.

Shin vaulted to first place in the rankings for the first time in her career on May third, following Lorena Ochoa’s retirement.

The 22-year-old remained in the top spot for seven weeks but fell to fourth place after skipping two tournaments for an appendectomy.

In the rankings released Tuesday, Cristie Kerr ranked third and Suzann Pettersen fourth. Shin’s compatriots Choi Na-yeon came in sixth and Kim Song-hee finished in ninth.
