Kim A-lim, conquered the US Open… It was the’Queen’ lineage
[앵커]
The relationship between the US Women’s Open and Korean players, which began in 1998 with Se-ri Park’s barefoot fighting spirit, continued this time.
Kim A-lim, who first participated in the US Open, a major LPGA Tour tournament, lifted the championship trophy as the last band play.

While waiting for the other players to finish the game, Alim Kim stands up in amazement when he hears of his victory.
Lee Jung-eun and Kim Ji-young congratulated Alim Kim’s victory with champagne baptism.
Alim Kim, who tied for ninth place after five strokes in the lead, struck three birdies in the first half with an exciting swing and accurate putting.
However, as soon as the second half started, it seemed to be moving away from the challenge of winning two holes in a row.
In the last three halls, reverse electrodes were unfolded.
Kim A-lim, who made a birdie by sticking a tee shot close to the hole at par 3 on the 16th hole, made a birdie up to the 18th hole in a row.
Alim Kim, who recorded 281 strokes of 3 under par in the final total, took the place of’Queen’ in his first appearance at the US Open.
He won 1.1 billion won in the championship prize, and he is qualified to play in the LPGA from next year.
“It’s really glorious, I’ve won. I still don’t realize this very well. I hope that my play will be a good energy if it really gives someone a hope.”
Ko Jin-young, the number one in the world rankings, won runner-up and dramatically won the CME Group Tour Championship, the final match of the season.
Park In-bi and defending champion Lee Jung-eun tied for sixth place.
The Korean women’s golf, which has reached the top of the 11th US Open, starting with Se-ri Park, the’Barefoot Queen’ and A-rim Kim, has once again proved the strength of the US Open.
