Jeeno Thitikul Becomes Number 1 in Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings

Jeeno Thitikul has ascended to the number one position in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings for the second time in her career. This achievement follows her tie for 30th place at the AIG Women’s Open, which allowed her to surpass Nelly Korda, who had held the top spot since March 2024.

The LPGA Tour concluded its final major championship of the season with Miyu Yamashita winning the Women’s British Open. Thitikul's consistent performance throughout the season, including eight top-10 finishes, contributed to her rise in the rankings, despite not winning a major tournament this year.

Thitikul first reached the number one ranking on October 31, 2022, and is now the second Thai golfer to achieve this milestone, following Ariya Jutanugarn. Thitikul expressed gratitude for her supporters and emphasized her commitment to representing the sport well.
