Su A Kim started playing golf when she
was fifteen years old. She turned pro in 2001, and played
for several years on the KLPGA and Futures Tours without
much distinction.
In 2006, she had her best finish yet
on the KLPGA, a sixth place at a KB Star tour event.
Late that year, she played in the LPGA's qualifying
school and finished tied for 53rd, good for a non-exempt
card on the LPGA for 2007.
Kim only played four events on the LPGA
tour in 2007, finishing no higher than 50th, so it was
back to Q-School at the end of the year. Amazingly,
she played brilliantly there, eventually finishing in
second place to easily secure her tour card for 2008.
Alas, her first full exempt season on
tour was not a good one. Although she made much more
money in 2008 than 2007, she still did not make enough
money to maintain any LPGA status for 2009.
In 2009, Kim played on the Futures Tour,
where she finished 62nd on the money list. She return
to the KLPGA in 2010, but only finished 88th on the
money list.
