The field of this tourney is always full of stars, this year, as it's a tradition, we'll have the chance to see the top 10 of the Rolex Rankings. Today we'll talk about players 10 to 6:
10. Song-Hee Kim: she has never won in the LPGA, still her victories in the FUTURES Tour (5) have been enough to put herself among the best. This season, Kim has been runner-up twice and leads some stats such as scoring average (69.98), rounds under par (74%), top 10 (78%), birdies (206) and sub-par holes (210).
9. In-Kyung Kim: her career has been discrete, nevertheless, she's lifted two LPGA trophies, Longs Drugs Challenge (2008) and LPGA State Farm Classic (2009), and one more from the Ladies European Tour, Dubai Masters (2009). As if that wasn't enough, she's very consistent with her short game.
8. Anna Nordqvist: she's been compared with Annika Sörenstam by media and fans; the 23 year-old Swede has three victories in two seasons as a pro, besides, she's very analytic when she plays. Furthermore, she trains with Sörenstam's former coaches, Henri Reis and Pia Nilsson.
7. Paula Creamer: U.S. Women's Open champion is anxious to play this week, mainly because last year she had to WD from this event due to health issues. The "Pink Panther" came back to the LPGA just in time, she's a crowds' favorite and has the talent needed to help the tour go back on track.
6. Na Yeon Choi: this year she's won once, at the Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic, and has been runner-up twice. With only two seasons as a LPGA member, the South Korean has 3 million dollars in earnings and is fifth in the Player of the Year Award race.
This five players will do everything to win, but they'll also fight to climb the Rolex Rankings and become closer to the first spot.
