Korean Sweep!
There was a Korean sweep in golf this past weekend. Anthony Kim won the Tiger Woods hosted AT&T National and Seon Hwa Lee won the P&G Beauty NW Arkansas Championship. It was the 2nd victory of the year for both.
Anthony Kim became the first PGA golfer under the age of 25 since Tiger Woods to win twice in the same year. He earlier won the Wachovia Championship back in May. That's 2 wins in 5 starts! It was good to see this young budding superstar get so much TV coverage and the announcers were complimenting his swing and poise and his potential all throughout the weekend. It looks like this 23 year old could be making some waves in the future! PS Hawaii's Dean Wilson also did well with a Top 10 finish.
Seon Hwa Lee also got her 2nd victory of this year by birdeing the final hole to beat out fellow Koreans Meena Lee and Jane Park. In all, there were 7 girls of Korean ancestry in the Top 10. Wow!
