Olympic Golf: Korda Sisters, Lexi Thompson, Danielle Kang Make Up Team USA

The qualifying for the women’s golf competition at the Tokyo Olympic Games has completed with publication of the Final Olympic Golf Rankings.

The women’s standings were set after Sunday’s conclusion of the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, where 22-year-old American Nelly Korda claimed her maiden major championship title to move to No. 1 in the world and atop the Olympic rankings.

Both the U.S. and South Korea lead the way with four qualified players, while none of the other 34 countries represented has more than two.

The 60-player women’s tournament will be held at Kasumigaseki Country Club, just outside of Tokyo, August 4-7.

Korda leapfrogged South Korea’s Jin Young Ko and Inbee Park in the final Olympic rankings and will be joined by Danielle Kang (No. 5), Lexi Thompson (No. 9) and older sister Jessica Korda (No. 13) on Team USA.

Joining Ko (No. 2) and 2016 gold medalist Park (No. 3) on the South Korean team will be Sei Young Kim (No. 4) and Hyo Joo Kim (No. 6).

In addition to Park, 2016 silver medalist Lydia Ko of New Zealand (No. 10) and bronze medalist Shanshan Feng of China (No. 16) also qualified.
