Ko and Jutanugarn to settle CME Globe race, player of the year title on Sunday

LPGA Tour CME Group Tour Championship leaderboard http://www.lpga.com/tournaments/cme-group-tour-championship/leaderboard

At 20 years of age, England's Charley Hull is another of the brilliant young stars on the LPGA Tour and after her bogey free -6 66 -13 total, she has a one-stroke lead over Brittany Lincicome (66) and So Yeon Ryu (69) and two-stroke advantage over Lydia Ko (73), Ariya Jutanugarn (65), In Gee Chun (68), Jennifer Song (66) and Lizette Salas (67) as she looks for her first win.

However the big picture has Ko and Jutanugarn battling for all the marbles.

Ko needs to win to catch Jutanugarn in the player of the year race, and also would take the season points title and $1 million CME Globe bonus. Ko also is fighting Jutanugarn for the money title and Chun for the Vare Trophy for the lowest scoring average.

Jutanugarn leads the tour with five victories, one more than Ko.

Wrapping up a brilliant year, Brooke Henderson is T34th at -3 after her 69 while her friend, Alena Sharp shot 72 T47 +1.
