The colon should be placed after the word "Competitor". Therefore as already mentioned, THE ANSWER IS C. COMPETITOR .

Explanation:

A colon is used between two independent clauses when the second part of the sentence expands,paraphrases or illustrates the first part.

So, White has one advantage over the newer, younger competitor: experience.

Here experience illustrated the first part of the sentence. So, competitor is the right option.
