If Sung Hyun Park wins the Bank of Hope Founders Cup, she is projected to move to No. 2 (from No. 4) in the Rolex Women’s World Rankings, the highest ranking she can get to this week. Shanshan Feng, who is not playing this week, will remain No. 1 regardless of what happens.
A solo-second through fourth-place finish projects her moving ahead of So Yeon Ryu to No. 3 in the rankings. Through three rounds of competition, Park is tied for 13th at 8-under par and six shots back of Inbee Park.
Feng has been No. 1 in the world for 18 consecutive weeks.
