Park Jeong-a of Korea Expressway Corporation continues her unbroken streak. She has held the top spot in the Star Ranking Star Sports women's category for an impressive 26 consecutive weeks.
In the 60th Star Ranking Star Sports women's vote, which ran from 3:01 p.m. on the 13th to 3:00 p.m. on the 20th over a week-long period, Park Jeong-a secured first place with 22,738 votes.

The gap between the two athletes was a mere 342 votes.
Table tennis star Shin Yu-bin of Korean Air earned 1,153 votes for fourth place, while women's golfer Park Hyun-kyung (26) received 334 votes to finish fifth. The rankings of the top five remained unchanged compared to last week.
