Congratulations to Stacy Lewis for winning the Kia Drive to the Top Award
After the Lorena Ochoa Invitational Presented by Banamex, Inbee Park and Stacy Lewis top the list with 17 top-10 finishes each. So Yeon Ryu and Lydia Ko are tied for third place with 14 top-10 finishes. Michelle Wie and Shanshan Feng are tied for fifth place with 12 top-10 finishes.
For the last three years, the Kia Drive to the Top award has been presented to the player with the most top-10 finishes of the season. And for three straight years now, Stacy Lewis has driven away with the prize.
Lewis has amassed 17 top-10 finishes in the 27 tournaments played through the Lorena Ochoa Invitational, which tied Inbee Park but Lewis broke the tiebreaker with a higher standing on the money list. Michelle Wie joked in July that Lewis was “annoyingly consistent” and the three-time winner of this award has now amassed 52 top 10s in the last three seasons. Lewis has a chance this season to become the first American since Beth Daniel in 1994 to sweep the Vare Trophy, Official Money List title and Rolex Player of the Year honors if she’s able to maintain her lead through the end of the season.
“My goal is to be in contention every week so finishing in the Top 10 consistently is validation of the work I’ve put in,” said Lewis. “I feel blessed to be honored with this award again and I am incredibly grateful to Kia for continuing to be an amazing sponsor for our Tour. I can’t wait to drive my K900.”
