20 year old Ariya Jutanugarn from Thailand is, in the opinion of most pundits and players head and shoulders the best female player in the world and this year she did nothing to change those opinions. She goes into 2019 as the world #1.
From a Canadian point of view Brooke Henderson had another strong year, was narrowly beaten in the Lou Marsh awards, and of course arguably produced this country's sporting moment when she won the CP Women's Open in Regina.
While they take a well earned Christmas break here's a look back at who won what in 2018.
