10 LPGA tour cards are on the line today.

The top five money winners will get full status cards. The 2nd 5 get a tour card and entrance into a few tournaments probably.

So far the top five seem secure,

1 1 Cindy LaCrosse Tampa, Fla. 14 2 $77,778
2 2 Christine Song Fullerton, Ca. 16 2 $62,164
3 3 Gerina Mendoza Roswell, N.M. 16 $52,621
4 9 Jennifer Song Ann Arbor, MI. 8 2 $51,375
5 6 Jenny Shin Torrance, Calif. 13 1 $49,296
6 4 Angela Oh Maple Shade, N.J. 16 1 $45,766
7 5 Tiffany Joh San Diego, Calif. 15 1 $40,484
8 8 Ryann O'TooleSan Clemente, Ca 15 2 $38,451
9 7 Pornanong Phatlum Chaiyaphum, Thailand 14 $38,185
10 10 Jane Rah Torrance, Calif. 16 $37,329

But Ryann O'Tool, tied for second right now could bump Mendoza (54th) with a win, J Song is in third right now, La Croses is tied for first.

Angela Oh is making a move and is within reach of bumping Shinn.

They atreaming the last hole live.

8 7 Tiffany Joh San Diego, Calif. 16 1 $41,451
9 12 Hannah Jun San Diego, Calif. 16 $40,406
10 9 Pornanong Phatlum Chaiyaphum, Thailand 15 $39,

Here is the final results, the top five will receive full exemption to full field events next year. There were no surprises in the top five, a couple of players slipped into the top ten. I'm not sure how many events that the second 5 can get into but they do get into the Q school as exempt, so they have another shot at getting full status.

The second ten players also get an exemption to the finals of Q schools which is 5 rounds and the top 18 - 20 players also get the equivalent of full status on the LPGA tour.

Judging this years crop, I definitely think the top two have potential as American rookies. Song is a heralded amateur, but today Song tied Lacrose on the final hole, Lacrosse won the playoff hitting her shot stoney for the second time after hitting it to about six inches for birdie to take the out right lead on the final hole of this last tournament.

LaCrosse is an interesting story, she is a graduate of Louisville, did not do that great last year on the futures tour, got seriously fit in the off season and really never looked back. She broke Vicky hurst record for most money in a season at 94K prox. She had some status from Q school last year, played two LPGA events, made cuts both times, but chose to focus on the futures tour. Now she doesn't have to play Q school.

Gerina Mendoza, #5, is a former big break participant, well she doesn't need that any more, she is exempt for 2011!
