Minjee Lee is set to defend her status as Australia’s most recent major golf winner at The Amundi Evian Championship in France, where she will be joined by eight other Australians. Following this event, nine Australian male golfers, including Adam Scott and Elvis Smylie, will participate in The Open Championship at Royal Portrush.

Kirsten Rudgeley makes a return to the Power Rankings after securing consecutive top 10 finishes on the Ladies European Tour. Maverick Antcliff also had his best international performance in nearly five years at the International Series Morocco. Lucas Herbert solidified his position behind Lee by earning medallist honors at Final Qualifying for The Open Championship.

The current rankings feature Kirsten Rudgeley at number 10 due to her recent successes in Europe. Karl Vilips is ranked ninth after a series of missed cuts, while Stephanie Kyriacou holds the eighth spot with strong performances on the LPGA Tour. Min Woo Lee is preparing for The Open Championship and ranks seventh.

Hannah Green aims to improve her previous results at The Amundi Evian Championship, holding sixth place in the rankings. Marc Leishman stands fifth and prepares for his first Open Championship since 2022. Adam Scott ranks fourth and will compete in the Genesis Scottish Open.

Jason Day maintains his position as Australia’s highest-ranked male player despite not advancing past the John Deere Classic weekend, ranking third overall. Lucas Herbert is second after topping Final Qualifying for The Open. Minjee Lee leads the rankings following her third major career win at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.

The Australian Golf Power Rankings are compiled with input from members of the Australian Golf media team.
