In the realm of sports, there is only one constant element, and it’s change. Today’s winner may miss the cut in the next event. It’s evident that talent in sports evolves over time.

Currently, the top women golfers include names like Nelly Korda, Megan Khang, Rose Zhang, among other brilliant ones. However, they too will inevitably see their brilliance fade, their names go lower in charts, making way for a new generation of LPGA players who will set new records, break the old ones, and etch their names in history. The dawn of this transition has already begun with the excellent show of North Carolina State’s Lauren Olivares Leon.
