The LPGA Tour and the Ladies European Tour both had the weekend off and that led to little change atop the world rankings.

Lorena Ochoa is easily the top-ranked female and was again followed by Jiyai Shin, Suzann Pettersen, Cristie Kerr, Yani Tseng, Paula Creamer, Angela Stanford and Karrie Webb.

Ai Miyazato inched up to No. 9, bumping In Kyung Kim down one to 10. Song-Hee Kim held steady in 11th, while Na Yeon Choi exchanged places with Anna Nordqvist, with Choi climbing to 12.

The remainder of the top 20 was unchanged with Michelle Wie followed by Eun- Hee Ji, Catriona Matthew, Helen Alfredsson, Sakura Yokomine, Sophie Gustafson and Shinobu Moromizato.
