Ken Climo and Des Reading maintained their leads in the DGWN rankings. Climo is followed closely by David Feldberg, up one spot from the 2007 year-end rankings, and Nate Doss is in 3rd. Eric McCabe might be the hottest player on tour this year. McCabe has won at Lewisville and at the Texas States in Houston, and finished second in Las Vegas and at Bowling Green, and a third place finish at the Memorial. Eric finished 2007 in 13th place in the DGWN rankings, but has rocketed all the way to fourth.

Des Reading maintains her lead atop the women’s rankings, but Val Jenkins keeps chipping away at it. Val has 5 wins this year already, including wins at the Memorial, Las Vegas, and Bowling Green. The only blemish on her otherwise perfect record in the women’s division this year was a second place finish to Nicole Frazer at the Bluegrass Open in northern Kentucky (suburban Cincinnati) this past weekend. Frazer moved up seven places to ninth based on her win in Kentucky and 4th place finish at Bowling Green. Carrie “Burl” Berlogar has moved past Angela Tschiggfrie into 3rd place. Tschiggfrie hasn’t played in a sanctioned event since September, while Burl has top 4 finishes at the Memorial and Bowling Green, and a win at the St. Patrick’s Classic in Orangevale.
