Kim Sei-young of South Korea moved up three notches to 16th place in the latest women's world golf rankings released Tuesday, after she won the Lotte Championship in Hawaii, Saturday. It was her second LPGA Tour victory this year. In February, she grabbed her first career LPGA Tour victory in the Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic in Bahamas. As a result, Kim currently tops LPGA Tour's official money list with about US$699,700 and also leads the points races for Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year.

Kim's compatriot Park In-bee, who finished second at the Lotte Championship, ranked second with a score of 10.08, outpacing Stacy Lewis of the United States who earned a score of 9.86. South Korea-born New Zealander Lydia Ko remained at No. 1 with 10.77 for the 12th consecutive week.
