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!
