Aussie golf sensation, Hannah Green, is rewriting her goals after a triumphant victory in Singapore.
The Power of a Win: Green's Journey to the Top
Imagine starting the year with a bang! That's exactly what Hannah Green, the West Australian golf star, has done. After securing her seventh LPGA Tour title, Green's world ranking has skyrocketed, moving her from a comfortable 20th position to an impressive 9th place. But here's where it gets controversial...
In a recent interview, Green admitted, "I didn't expect my ranking to soar this high." She had initially set her sights on the top 10, and now, with that goal achieved, she's eyeing an even loftier position - the top 5 or 6.
With a career-high ranking of 5th, Green is no stranger to success. However, her recent win in Singapore has reignited her ambition. She's returning home to Australia with a new sense of purpose, ready to tackle the upcoming Women's Australian Open and Women's PGA events.
"I feel the spotlight is on me now, with a bit more external pressure," Green shared. But she's taking it all in stride, determined to perform at her best.
And this is the part most people miss: Green's success in Singapore wasn't a fluke. It was her second win at the Women's World Championship, following her victory in 2024. She's proven that she thrives under pressure and performs consistently.
"Starting the year with a win is a great boost," Green said. "It's a surprise, yet not surprising, as I've found success at this venue before."
The Singapore title has not only elevated her ranking but has also relieved some of the pressure for Green as she prepares for her return to the US in April.
"Winning early in the season takes a bit of the edge off," she explained. "It means I'm not starting behind, and I can plan my strategy for the majors with a clear mind."
So, what's next for Hannah Green? She's setting her sights high, aiming to win both the Australian Open and the Women's PGA. But she's also mindful of not putting too much pressure on herself.
"A different goal for the 2026 season," she teased.
