Autograph Time!

American fans are spoiled, and they don't even know it! The Korean golfers are big celebrities in their native land, especially the top ones like Meena Lee (pictured above). Even Korean American golfers like Christina Kim are well known and liked back there. But the Korean fans only rarely get to see their heroes play in person, as they spend most of their time playing in events on American soil. So when the Korean players do go back to play in Korea, an autograph session where they can meet their fans is de rigeur. Here we can see Meena and Christina greeting fans young and old during a break at the Lake Hills Classic, an event they both played on the KLPGA tour (read about it in the Fairways and Greens report this issue!). The way these Korean golf stars keep getting younger, I wouldn't be surprised if that little girl with a visor is beating them both in a few years!
