Champ Kind Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (Reuters) - With Park In-bee's victory at the North Texas Shootout on Sunday South Korean golfers have won seven of the first 11 LPGA Tour events this season and the world number two says the battle for a spot on the Korean Olympic team is driving them hard. According to International Golf Federation rankings, Park would currently be joined by LPGA Tour rookie Kim Hyo-joo, Ryu So-yeon and Amy Yang, although qualification places will not be decided until next year. None of the four can take their spots for granted, though, with Lee Mi-rim, Kim Sei-young, Choi Na-yeon, Baek Kyu-jung and Jang Ha-na all inside the world top 20. "I don't know the exact cause, but maybe it's because players are concentrating really hard right now with the Olympics coming up next year," South Korea's Yonhap News quoted Park as saying.
