Top-ranked Ko splits with instructor Leadbetter

LYDIA Ko has split with instructor David Leadbetter after three years.

Leadbetter confirmed on Wednesday that he is no longer working with the top-ranked Ko. The 19-old Ko hasn’t commented on the decision. Ko turned to Leadbetter when she shifted her base from New Zealand to the US. Before that, she had worked with Guy Wilson since taking up golf as a 5-year-old. Ko won four LPGA Tour titles this season and has 14 career victories. Ko also made a late-season caddie change, firing Jason Hamilton. He quickly landed with rival Jang Ha-na of South Korea.
