 The Aussies should deliver a solid performance this year at the International Crown.

More from LPGA

Karrie Webb and Minjee Lee have swapped places in the Australian team’s ranking order with Lee leading the Aussie team this year. Team newcomers Rebecca Artis and Su Oh will bring a new level of potential strength that could help the Aussies finish in a stronger position than they did in 2014.

Oh is playing her rookie year on the LPGA Tour but she’s bringing some team experience to the International Crown. Oh and Minjee Lee played on the National Australian Team and figured in the team’s victory at the 2014 World Amateur Team Championship.

Lee played with Karrie Webb on the 2014 Crown Australian team, and was the only amateur playing in the event.

Artis, who plays on the Ladies European Tour, can deliver a solid, consistent golf game and will be a dependable member of the Australian team, but the real spark will come from Minjee Lee and the solid strategic leadership will rest with Karrie Webb.
