Lydia Ko Children: Does Lydia Ko Have Kids?

Korean-born New Zealand professional golfer Lydia Ko MNZM is yet to have kids. However, according to multiple reports, she will be getting married in December 2022 to her fiance Chung Jun.

Ko began playing golf as a five-year-old when her mother took her into a pro shop at the Pupuke Golf Club on Auckland’s North Shore owned by professional Guy Wilson, who coached her until 22 December 2013.

She was a seven-year-old in March 2005 when she first came to the attention of the media, for competing in the New Zealand national amateur championships.

Until 2017, she was the youngest person (age 14) to win a professional golf tour event, and is the youngest ever (age 15) to win an LPGA Tour event.

In August 2013, she became the only amateur to win two LPGA Tour events and upon winning The Evian Championship in France on 13 September 2015, she became the youngest woman, at age 18 years, 4 months and 20 days, to win a major championship.

Her closing round of 63 was a record lowest final round in the history of women’s golf majors, but she lowered that record with a 62 at the 2021 ANA Inspiration.

She had previously won the ANA Inspiration on 3 April 2016 for her second consecutive major championship, where she also became the youngest player to win two women’s major championships.

In 2014, Ko was named as one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people.

In both 2014 and 2015, Ko was named in the EspnW Impact25 list of 25 athletes and influencers who have made the greatest impact for women in sports.

In 2016, Ko was named Young New Zealander of the Year, and in the 2019 New Year Honours, she was appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to golf.
