Kim was surprised with her first career victory on Sunday and said that her goal this week was a top-10 finish. She came into this week coming off a missed cut at the Coates Golf Championship. But a top-10 was just the tip of the iceberg of what the 22-year old wanted to accomplish by moving her career to the LPGA from Korea.
“I joined the LPGA in hopes of making the Korean Olympics team, and this is one step towards that, so this means a lot to me,” said Kim.
She’s projected to move from No. 40 to No. 23 in the Rolex Rankings. Q Baek is currently the fourth and final Korean player in the Olympic rankings at No. 11 in the Rolex Rankings.
