At No. 4, Chun In-gee was the next highest-ranked South Korean. Kim In-kyung moved up a notch to No. 7, while Park In-bee, who has actually ruled herself out of the remainder of the LPGA season with a back injury, slipped back into the top 10 at No. 10.
Ji's victory was the 15th by a South Korean player this year, tying the record for most by the country in one LPGA season. There are four events left in 2017. (Yonhap)
