Charley Hull’s recent performance on the LPGA Tour at the Black Desert Championship left much to be desired, as she finished tied for 40th place. This lackluster showing did not help her improve her position in the Rolex Women’s Golf Rankings, as she remained outside of the top 10.
Currently, as of May 5, Charley Hull holds the 14th spot in the latest golf ranking update. She dropped out of the top 10 last week after failing to make the cut at the Chevron Championship. This marks her lowest ranking since the Maybank Championship back in October.
Throughout the season, the English golfer has only managed to secure one top-10 finish in six starts. In the previous week’s tournament, Charley Hull posted four consecutive rounds of 70 to finish at 8-under par, a staggering 18 shots behind the tournament winner.
In terms of the latest rankings, Nelly Korda continues to maintain her position at the top, followed by Jeeno Thitikul and Lydia Ko. Ruoning Yin, who finished as a joint runner-up in Utah, now sits at the fourth spot, while Haeran Ryu climbed to fifth place after her victory last Sunday.
Here is a breakdown of the current top 50 women’s golf rankings:
1. Nelly Korda (USA): 10.45 pts
2. Jeeno Thitikul (THA): 7.41 pts
3. Lydia Ko (NZL): 6.67 pts
4. Ruoning Yin (CHN): 5.66 pts
5. Haeran Ryu (KOR): 5.04 pts
6. Lilia Vu (USA): 4.88 pts
7. Hannah Green (AUS): 4.66 pts
8. Hyojoo Kim (KOR): 4.48 pts
9. Jin Young Ko (KOR): 4.31 pts
10. Lauren Coughlin (USA): 4.23 pts
Charley Hull currently holds the 14th spot with 3.80 points.
In conclusion, Charley Hull’s recent struggles on the LPGA Tour have impacted her standing in the rankings. With only one top-10 finish this season, she will be looking to bounce back in the upcoming tournaments to climb back up the rankings ladder.
