Chinese women's golf is showing dominance.

She secured joint 3rd place at the LPGA Tour Portland Classic (total prize money $1.5 million), which concluded the day before at Columbia Edgewater Country Club (par 72) in Portland, Oregon, USA, accumulating valuable points. This marks her second consecutive top 3 finish and her sixth top 10 entry of the season.

'The leading figure of the Chinese sensation,' In Luoning, has risen to world ranking number 2.

In Ruoning is a second-year player who debuted on the LPGA Tour in 2022.
