Arduino - write highscores to SQLite database on SD card

Question

EDIT since the solution I found took a different path I updated the title to reflect the final solution. The final solution allows to easily add and delete entries or retrieve how many you want with a simple query. The original questio (below) was about solving the problem with a txt file.

I have an ESP32 that currently writes highscores down to the EEPROM.

each entry consists of a name and the score.

I would like to replace this working solution with a SD card. I would have a txt file on the SD card containing the top 100 scores. a file would be like this:

Player1          97.3     ROWCHECKSUM
Some player name 92.3     ROWCHECKSUM
Player1          91.2     ROWCHECKSUM
Player1          90.3     ROWCHECKSUM
Player2          87.1     ROWCHECKSUM
Player4 guy      77.3     ROWCHECKSUM
Player2          64.3     ROWCHECKSUM
Player1          61.1     ROWCHECKSUM
Player7          51.1     ROWCHECKSUM
.
.
.
Player9          21.1     ROWCHECKSUM

the rowchecksum would make sure that nobody changed the file manually. Each time there is a new highscore, I'd have to update the txt file. what would be a good aproach to this? Deleting the file and regenerating it every time? it seems like a lot of data to write just to delete the last row and insert the new one in the proper place.
