Lydia Ko won five times on the LPGA in 2015 and four times in 2016. Yet she calls this season, in which she has won only once, her most consistent yet.
The proof is in her scoring average. Heading into this week’s BMW Ladies Championship, Ko’s 69.176 average led the tour. Minjee Lee, her nearest competitor, would need to average 68.389 in her remaining events to pass the Kiwi. Xiyu Lin and Brooke Henderson would have to average rounds of 66.480 or better to have any chance.
