Capsule Bio

Ji Na Lim joined the KLPGA in 2006. She collected four top tens that year. But it was 2007 in which she really broke through on tour. She had five top tens that year, but her first top five finishes. She really picked it up at the end of the year, with a 5th place finish at the Hite Cup, followed by her first win at the S-OIL Invitational. She finished 8th on the money list in 2007, 18th in 2008.

2009 was a return to form for Lim. She won another event, the LG Electronics Women's Open, and had four other top tens, to finish 8th on the money list. She even got her first chance to appear as an entertainer at the year ending KLPGA Awards show, dancing in a salsa number with other top stars.

Ji Na Lim had a pretty weak 2010 on the KLPGA tour. She only finished 37th on the money list, and had just 2 top tens during the year, the best result being a 9th. In the Fall, she attended Japanese LPGA Qualifying School. She finished 12th and will presumably join that tour full time in 2011.

Lim did not end up finishing on the top 50 of the JLPGA money list in 2011. She did better in Korea, playing multiple events on the KLPGA. There, she managed three third places, including a semifinal loss to Soo Jin Yang at the Doosan Match Play. She was 29th on the KLPGA money list.
