<p>Danielle Kang is an accomplished American professional <a href="/biography/danielle-kang">golfer</a> currently competing on the LPGA Tour.</p>

<h2>Early Life and Education</h2>

<p><a href="/biography/danielle-kang">Danielle Grace Kang</a> was born on October 20, 1992, in San Francisco, California. She was raised in Southern California and showed early promise in golf, qualifying for the U.S. Women's Open at the age of 14 in 2007. Kang began high school at Oak Park High School before transferring to Westlake High School. She later enrolled at Pepperdine University in Malibu in early 2010 to pursue both academic and athletic opportunities.</p>

<h2>Amateur Success</h2>

<p>During her amateur career, Kang achieved significant success. She won the U.S. Women's Amateur Championship in consecutive years, 2010 and 2011, becoming one of the few golfers to do so. While at Pepperdine University, she played for the school’s women’s golf team during the 2011 spring regular season. However, she was ruled academically ineligible for the 2011 NCAA postseason. Kang stated that she was not disappointed, as her focus had already shifted toward turning professional.</p>

<p>In 2011, while still an amateur, Kang qualified for and competed in all four major championships. She made the cut in three of them, including the LPGA Championship, where she was the only amateur in the field. At the Women’s British Open, she finished in a tie for 49th and was recognized as the low amateur.</p>

<h2>LPGA Career Highlights</h2>

<p>Danielle Kang turned professional later in 2011 and steadily climbed the ranks on the LPGA Tour. Her breakthrough came in 2017 when she secured her first LPGA Tour victory at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, one of the tour’s five major championships. The win marked a significant milestone in her career and established her as a rising star on the international stage.</p>

<p>In October 2018, Kang captured her second LPGA title at the Buick LPGA Shanghai in China, further solidifying her status as a consistent contender on the tour. Known for her competitive spirit and precise short game, Kang has since continued to accumulate top-10 finishes and has represented the United States in multiple Solheim Cups.</p>
