Professional golf player Ji-Yai Shin was born on April 28, 1988, in South Korea. Her family experienced a horrible event in 2004. Her mother was killed in a car accident that also seriously injured her brother and sister. When she got over the incident and returned to the golf world, she used her mother’s insurance money to support herself.
Her amateur victory at the 2005 KLPGA was her first significant accomplishment. In the same year, she turned professional. In 2006, she returned to the KLPGA and won three titles in that season. Shin won 10 of the 19 KLPGA events in 2007, shattering the previous tour record.
That same year, she was ranked eighth in the world as a result of her outstanding performances in the competitions she entered, including the Ladies European Tour, the Evian Masters, and the U.S. Women’s Open.
Shin had competed in several tournaments by 2008. She and her partner, Eun-Hee Ji competed in the Women’s World Cup of Golf, but the Philippine team, led by Jennifer Rosales and Dorothy Delasin, emerged victorious. Shin also competed in the Women’s Australian Open, finishing in second place after losing to Karrie Webb. Her greatest triumph occurred when she won the Women’s British Open in Berkshire, England.
The 21-year-old joined the LPGA in 2009. Since the start of the season, she has won both the Wegmans LPGA by June and the HSBC Women’s Champions, which is held at Tanah Merah Country Club.
