Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    In terms of ranking, the woman to be currently ranked #1 among women golfers is Lorena Ochoa. The Mexican player had been making a strong case for the No.1 ranking since the season of 2006, and finally displaced Annika Sorenstam with a point average score of 12.84 from 50 events. She managed this feat even though there was no LPGA tournament last week. Sorenstam had occupied the top spot ever since the ranking system was first brought into the LPGA in February 2006.

    In the current season, Ochoa has had six starts and converted two of them into winners. She has also been runners-up at another event, making three finishes out of six in the top two. In 2006, Ochoa had shown tremendous improvement in her game, cornering the top spot in six tournaments. Lorena Ochoa was born in Guadalajara, Mexico, and studied in the University of Arizona. Ochoa is now #1 in the LPGA rankings, with an injured Sorenstam at #2. Another top player on the injury list, Michelle Wie, is set to make her comeback soon.
