Hyo Joo Kim made a move in the Rolex Rankings this week moving up 10 spots to No. 10 with her win at the 2014 The Evian Championship.
Hyo Joo Kim sank a 12-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole at The Evian Championship to win her first LPGA title and first major championship. The KLPGA member shot a final-round 68 to finish at 11-under par and one shot clear of LPGA and World Golf Halls of Fame member Karrie Webb.
Kim started the day with a one-shot lead and said she had no nervous energy on the first tee. She was 4-under par through 12 holes on Sunday and led by as many as three shots early on in the round. But two untimely bogeys on Nos. 14 and 16 opened the door for Webb to make a final charge. The duo was tied at 11-under par on the 16th hole when Kim missed a 10-foot par putt for her first bogey of the day.
Other Notable Moves:
- Karrie Webb moved up four spots coming in at No. 5 with her outstanding play and second place finish at the Evian Championship.
