Golfer Kim Min-sol Rises to No. 14 in Women's World Rankings for Third Consecutive Week

Kim Min-sol, a "super rookie" on the Korea Ladies Professional Golf (KLPGA) Tour, has climbed the women's world golf rankings for the third consecutive week.

In the women's world rankings released on the 8th, Kim received an average of 3.80 points, moving up one spot from 15th last week to 14th.

Kim's ranking had slipped to 20th following a sluggish tie for 53rd at the Jeju Samdasoo Masters in August.

However, she subsequently finished as the runner-up at the Mediheal-Hankook Ilbo Championship and the KLPGA Championship, and placed third at the OK Savings Bank Okutman Open that concluded on the 6th, leading to a three-week upward streak in her world ranking from 18th to 15th, and now 14th.

Choi Ye-rim, who won the Okutman Open, jumped 28 spots to 83rd.

Seo Gyo-rim, who has formed a two-way rivalry with Kim on the KLPGA Tour this season, did not participate in the Okutman Open and maintained her world ranking at 30th.

Nelly Korda, Jeeno Thitikul, Ryu Hae-ran, and Kim Hyo-joo maintained the top four spots without any changes from last week.
