Capsule Bio

Aram Cho turned professional in 2003, and in 2004 joined the Futures Tour. On that tour she had five top ten finishes, but two of those were wins: the Michelob ULTRA Futures Charity Golf Classic and the Stratton Mountain Futures Classic. This enabled her to finish 4th on the Futures Tour money list, which qualified her for an LPGA exempt card in 2005.

However, she did not play well enough in 2005 to maintain her card, and at Q-School that year, was only able to earn non-exempt status for 2006. In 2006, she again had to go to Q-School, but this time earned exempt status for the 2007 season by finishing tied for 12th. But in 2007, she once again lost her card, and for the 2008 season is back to non-exempt status.

In 2008, Aram chose to focus on the KLPGA tour. She did win an event on that tour, the first KB Star tour event of the year, but otherwise struggled to make cuts most of the season. Presumably she has given up on the LPGA tour for now.

In 2009, Cho had a mediocre KLPGA season. She finished 48th on the money list and only had one top ten all year. Her 2010 season was similar, with only one top ten in her season again. She finished 54th that year.

Cho had a weak season in 2011, finishing 75th on the KLPGA money list. Her best finish on tour was a 20th place. In 2012, she finished 56th on the money list, with two top four finishes mixed with a lot of missed cuts.

Cho continued to struggle in 2013; she made just 4 million won all year, with her best finish a 13th place. She lost playing privileges on the KLPGA and was not able to get them back in 2014, finishing 45th at tour Q-School.

She is not known to have played any professional golf in Korea since 2015 and has probably retired.
