Historic Participation in Men's Tournament

In 2003, Pak competed in a men’s professional golf event and finished in 10th place. This achievement made her the second woman in history to make the cut in a men's professional tournament, following Babe Zaharias who did so in 1945.

Challenges and Recovery

Pak experienced a downturn in performance in 2005, missing the cut in 29 majors. She later revealed in interviews that she was struggling to balance her personal life with her golf career. It was eventually discovered that she had a finger injury, which impacted her play. After treatment and recovery, she returned to form and captured her fifth major title in 2006.

Legacy and Impact on Korean Golf

In 2007, Pak won the Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic for the fifth time, making her only the fourth player in LPGA history to win the same tournament on five occasions. When she joined the LPGA Tour in 1998, she was the only South Korean woman on the circuit. A decade later, there were over 45 Korean women competing, and her influence has been credited with inspiring a new generation of Korean female golfers to pursue the sport professionally.
