Pak Se-ri is one of the most popular and richest Golfer who was born on September 28, 1977 in Daejeon, South Korea.

She was the only South Korean on the LPGA Tour in the year 1998, Pak’s spectacular triumph at the 1998 U.S. Women’s Open encouraged many Korean women to take up golf as a sport. She is regarded as a leader of the game in her home country and has also inspired the new generations of LPGA players Na Yeon Choi and Inbee Park who have followed her footsteps at the LPGA level. A statue of her now stands outside Gongju’s stadium. This statue commemorates her signature moment: a successful shot from a water hazard to remain tied for first place in the 1998 U.S. Women’s Open; this allowed her to force a sudden death playoff which she then won with “a tremendous birdie putt from nearly 20 feet on the second hole.” This was a victory named by the Korea Times as the 3rd most acclaimed moment in 60 years of South Korean sports history. Her shot was shown as the basis for the first episode of the Korean TV drama “Birdie Buddy.”

Since 1998, she has gone on to win 21 more events on the Tour, including three more majors. In June 2007, at age 29, she qualified for the World Golf Hall of Fame, surpassing Karrie Webb as the youngest living entrant ever. (Tom Morris, Jr., who died in 1875 at the age of 24, had been elected in 1975.)
