Is this Yealimi Noh's award to lose? I'm assuming that Shibuno isn't coming over, by the way.
My take is this: I tend to be underwhelmed by the college stars that, year after year, they tout as big stars, yet just as frequently, they rise to the middle of the pack (at best) and stall. And next year's college squad doesn't seem all that august TBH.
Looking at Symetra, I'm guessing the Thai girl Patty T might be tough. But even she hasn't contended on the LPGA the way Noh has, and I think Noh has more potential upside than any of the women in the rookie class including Patty.
But, will Yealimi explode in 2020, or will she take a few years to blossom? That I'm not sure about. I think, based on her recent record, she will contend a few times and notch 5 - 7 top tens, which ought to be enough to claim the prize.
The Korean streak of ROY will end next year alas. I can't seen any of the Korean rookies as doing much more than struggling to maintain their tour cards... UNLESS Hye Jin wins early in Australia and decides to jump the KLPGA ship, which is not so far fetched given that she finished second in Australia in 2018.
What do you think?
