The South Korean sensation was an LPGA first year back in 2018 at the age of 22 when she took home Rookie of the Year honors.
The accolade was just the first of many in Ko’s illustrious LPGA career. When making the jump from Korea, she had already won a whopping 12 times on the Korean LPGA Tour.
In just her fifth season, Ko has tallied 13 LPGA wins including two major championships. She took home the most prize money for three straight seasons (2019-2021) and also was awarded LPGA Player of the Year honors in 2019 and 2021.
