Best 2009 in Women's Golf?

Hound Dog has argued that Lorena Ochoa had the best 2009 on the LPGA, but when you take into account that Ji-Yai Shin got her 4th worldwide win late in the JLPGA's season, and that 6 players on the JLPGA and KLPGA won at least as often as she did, the question of who had the best 2009 in the world of women's golf is wide open.  Here are the Mostly Harmless nominees, each of whom had more than 1 worldwide win this season.

Ji-Yai Shin (LPGA stats: 4 wins, $1.81M in 25 starts, 70.26 scoring average, 3.97 birdies per round; JLPGA stats: 1 win, ¥37.42M in 6 starts, 70.47 scoring average, 3.71 birdies per round).
