A first KLPGA major title moved Park Bo-gyeom to No. 131 in the women's world golf rankings Tuesday, a gain of 53 places from the previous week.

Elsewhere in the rankings, Kim Min-sol reached a career-high No. 13 after moving up one position. She remained the highest-ranked player on the KLPGA Tour, while Seo Kyo-rim held at No. 30.

Nelly Korda retained the No. 1 ranking ahead of Jeeno Thitikul. South Korea's Ryu Hae-ran and Kim Hyo-joo remained third and fourth, respectively.
