Besides the shuffle at the top, there were no other changes this week to the women's top 20.

Suzann Pettersen remained No. 3 and was followed by Shin, Yani Tseng, Na Yeon Choi, Paula Creamer, Anna Nordqvist, Song-Hee Kim and Karrie Webb to round out the top 10.

In Kyung Kim, Michelle Wie, Angela Stanford, Inbee Park, Sakura Yokomine, Morgan Pressel, Mi-Jeong Jeon, Chie Arimura, Catriona Matthew and Hee Kyeong Seo completed the top 20.
