LPGA in the middle of the post-adjustment parity without repeated winners this season

Langering Question The past three months on the LPGA tour was when Nelly Korda finally won this year.

Now the question should be who will then win?

The latest participants in the winning books in 2025. They were Somo Lee and Jin Hee im at the Dow Championship, the only official team event in the LPGA schedule. It conserted 17 straight tournaments with different winners.

LPGA did not see this level of parity – or perhaps lack of domination – in its 75 year history. The previous record for the start of the season was 15 different winners in 2017. and 1991. years.

It may be even more speech that this amazing series of different winners was long before the South Korean two birds the first hole of the playoffs to beat Lexi Thompson and Megan Khang. This is because no one from the top 16 teams on the leader on the leaders on Dow Championship won this year.

And that you think it was a year ago when the Kord escaped five direct wins to bind the LPGA records and ended the seven victory season and as a dominant figure in women’s golf. It would ask a lot to repeat that (Scottie Scheffler nodded), although he is still a little surprising that Korda did not register a victory halfway through the season.

“It’s golf,” Korda said passing into the female championship in the KPMG two weeks ago, where she was on the edge that the wind did not let her in reverse. “Every year it is different. Last year he enters this event, I had five victories. I think Hannah Green had more victories under the belt.

“It’s just … It’s just golf,” she said. “Somehow you have to drive a wave, and the competition becomes better every year better and better. Win once, to win twice, it’s really good.”

The competition is certainly more diverse.

Top 10 players in women’s world ranking represent eight countries. The 17 tournaments of the year won by players from eight countries – including South Korea with four victories, and three each for the United States, Sweden and potentially in the formation of Japan.

But parity is best to illustrate to other stripes of different winners compared.

There were five winners of the first time on LPGA (six, including Lee and them with Dow Championship), and only three winners entered this year with at least five careers’ victories at LPGA.

When the season 2017 started with 15 different winners, they were all previously won by LPGA and eight had already had at least five victories. In 1991, which was also highlighted by 15 different winners, there were two winners of the first time – one of them was the future world golf hall member of famous Meg Mallon – and nine those players who had already had a five-plus win.

“I think he wins here is harder and harder,” Carlot Ciganda said after winning Meijer LPGA Classic, her first LPGA title in more than eight years. “Many really good players, especially a lot of young men. Also good Japanese and Korean and Asians, and even Americans. Like, I don’t think it’s easy.”

Or is either parity or is simply cyclic, and these things have a way to work for themselves.

The 2017 season ended with nine more winners, there are no more than two victories. Rookie Sung-Hyun South Korean Park and so that Yeon Ryu shared the LPGA player in points, the first time to go since the award began in 1966. years. Four players left the seasonal CME Group Group Group with a trophy of some diversity.

It was a serious parity.

In 1991. Mallon continued to win two Majoric and ties with Pat Bradley with four victories per piece. Bradley pulled all the great rewards the leading list of money and a trophy of the Varena Trophy for the lowest scope and winning the LPGA players in the year.

There are still 15 tournaments in the LPGA schedule this year. The two of them are Majori, starting from the next week with the Evian Championship in France.

Lee asked what to take away from her first victory in LPGA and answered, “the same thing is the same. It should be this victory and forget, then try to win.”

The previous 16 winners were certainly thinking about those lines.

Instead, LPGA testified records with 17 straight tournaments and more than several winners for the beginning of the season. The stranger is still a look at the races for LPGA Player in the year.

Mao Saigo, who won the first chief in Chevron and bound for the neighborhood in the American woman open, has a four-legged line through the female PGA Champions of Minjer Lee, which is three points clean from Jenoe Thity.

Korda is no. 11 And she could move to number 1 in the dot race if he wins or an Evian Championship or Aig Women open three weeks later.

For the season, a lot of time left to get a certain definition and for the cord to settle again as a dominant player in female golf. It was done by Scheffler on a male tour, running three victories in four tournaments, including bigger.

For now, win cord or green or ruins yin on no. 4 The world would only add a level of diversity, LPGA has never seen.
