Poll: 2010 Women’s British Open Winner
July 31st, 2010 by Phil Reich PGA Golf Art
We’ve come to the final major of the 2010 women’s golf season, the Ricoh Women’s British Open. It feels like we’re only halfway through the season, though. With good reason: The fourth major of the LPGA schedule is also only the 14th tournament on the schedule.
It feels a little odd to be talking about the final major of a year when none of the LPGA Tour’s player awards will be wrapped up for another couple months. Taking a cue from The Constructivist, here are how several of the award races look right now:
LPGA Money List
1. Jiyai Shin, $1,167,941
2. Suzann Pettersen, $1,045,392
3. Ai Miyazato, $1,024,840
4. Na Yeon Choi, $1,018,322
5. Cristie Kerr, $978,133
Full list
Vare Trophy (Scoring average)
1. Song-Hee Kim, 69.78
2. Suzann Pettersen, 69.87
3. Cristie Kerr, 70.03
4. Na Yeon Choi, 70.09
5. Jiyai Shin, 70.26
Full list
Player of the Year
1. Ai Miyazato, 138.00
2. Cristie Kerr, 121.00
3. Jiyai Shin, 105.00
4. Suzann Pettersen, 96.00
5. Na Yeon Choi, 93.00
Full list
The Women’s British Open takes place at Royal Birkdale, vary familiar as part of the men’s British Open rota.
The last five winners on the LPGA Tour – Ai Miyazato, Cristie Kerr, Na Yeon Choi, Paula Creamer and Jiyai Shin – make a pretty good list of contenders this week. The defending champion is Catriona Matthew.
