ShareRICHMOND, Texas — Jiyai Shin can become the first rookie in more than three decades to win the Player of the Year award with a strong performance at the LPGA Tour Championship, which begins Thursday just outside of Houston.
The 21-year-old Korean will face a star-packed field at The Houstonian Country Club, where the $225,000 first prize would help her end Lorena Ochoa’s reign over the women’s tour. Ochoa has been the player of the year the past three seasons.
