LydiaKo
Three majors, 31 professional wins and multiple LPGA and New Zealand honours: a concise profile of Lydia Ko.
Ko at a glance
Lydia Ko's honours list reads like a career measured in long runs rather than a single peak: three major championships sit with 31 professional wins, two LPGA Player of the Year awards, two Vare Trophies, a Rolex Annika Major Award and three Race to the CME Globe titles. New Zealand has made her Sportswoman of the Year four times and given her the Halberg Supreme Award twice, while the LPGA named her Rookie of the Year.
She plays on the LPGA Tour, having turned professional in 2013, and lists Orlando, Florida, as home. Still competing at 29, she also has Korea University among her listed background. Her results keep her in the biggest fields on the LPGA Tour, a circuit she has contested since her teenage years.
