Lydia Ko was named one of Time magazine’s 100 most important people in 2014. Ko was nominated to the EspnW Impact25 list of 25 athletes and influencers that have had the biggest impact on women in sports in both 2014 and 2015.

Ko was selected Young New Zealander of the Year in 2016, and she was made a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit for contributions to golf in the 2019 New Year Honours.

What does Lydia Ko have in her bag?

She had been using a PXG Blackjack model for a time before moving to a Thunderbolt prototype and a Thunderbolt C model.

However, she now has a Ping Ketsch prototype in there, which she put in the bag around the end of January 2022.

She became the youngest woman to win a major title when she won The Evian Championship in France on September 13, 2015, at the age of 18 years, 4 months, and 20 days. Her final round of 63 set a record for the lowest final round in the history of women’s golf majors, but she broke it with a 62 at the 2021 ANA Inspiration.

She had previously won the ANA Inspiration on 3 April 2016 for her second consecutive major victory, becoming the youngest player in history to do so.

Ko has won 15 events since turning professional in 2014.
