Well now, let me tell ya somethin’ ’bout this young lad Kris Kim and his mama, Ji-Hyun Suh. I ain’t one to keep up with all them fancy folks, but I heard ’bout this boy who’s all set to play some big golf over yonder at TPC Craig Ranch. He’s a young feller, just 16, and it seems like he’s followin’ right in his mama’s footsteps, who was quite the big shot herself in them golf circles years ago. They say he’s all ready to play in the 2024 CJ Cup Byron Nelson, all thanks to his mama’s hard work and good name in the game.
Now, as far as I understand, Ji-Hyun Suh ain’t just your everyday golfer. Oh no, she’s somethin’ special! She’s from South Korea, and back in the 90s, she was one of them first gals from over there who made it big on the LPGA Tour. Real pioneer, they say. Before her, not many from Korea were out there swingin’ them clubs on the big stage. But Ji-Hyun, she changed all that, and now, look at all them South Korean folks comin’ up in golf! It’s like a whole wave started, and she was the one who kicked it off.
But that ain’t all. You see, Ji-Hyun didn’t just stop with herself. She went and passed on that golf knowledge to her boy, Kris Kim. They say she had him out there with a club in his hand since he was just a wee little thing, not even five years old. I reckon that’s where it all began. Kris didn’t have no choice but to get good, what with a mama like that teachin’ him the ropes. And now look at him—he’s headin’ out to play with the big boys, all thanks to his mama’s lessons.
Now, I ain’t no golf expert, but they do say Kris got his mama’s talent. From what I heard, he’s been workin’ real hard to make it to the PGA Tour, and it looks like all that effort’s gonna pay off. Ain’t no easy task, that’s for sure. But Kris, well, he’s got the spirit of his mama in him, so you can bet he’s gonna give it his all out there. I’m sure Ji-Hyun’s proud, watchin’ him grow up and take after her like this. A mother’s love, you know, it sure does go a long way in makin’ somethin’ great happen.
I reckon it won’t be long before folks are talkin’ about Kris Kim just like they did his mama all them years ago. With a mama like Ji-Hyun Suh, it’s no wonder Kris is bound for greatness. I mean, she showed the whole world what South Koreans could do in golf, and now her son’s out there followin’ her trail. It’s kinda like when the old folks used to say, “The apple don’t fall far from the tree.” Well, Kris sure enough proves that. He’s got the game, he’s got the heart, and he’s got a mama who knows how to make a champion.
So, if you ask me, this Kris Kim fella might just be the next big thing in golf. And it ain’t just ’cause of his mama, though that sure helps. It’s ’cause he’s puttin’ in the work, just like she did. Now, I don’t know where his journey’s gonna take him, but I’ll tell ya what, if he’s half the golfer his mama was, he’s gonna do just fine.
Now, don’t go thinkin’ Ji-Hyun Suh is just sittin’ back in her rocker, watchin’ her boy. Oh no, I bet she’s still out there swingin’ clubs herself, showin’ folks how it’s done. Ain’t no stoppin’ a woman like her! She’s set the bar high for her son, and you can bet Kris is gonna try his hardest to reach it.
So let’s keep our eyes on Kris Kim. With his mama’s blood runnin’ through him, and that golf swing of hers passed down, it ain’t no surprise if we see him makin’ his mark out there on the PGA Tour before too long. The boy’s got the talent, and he’s got the roots—just like his mama, Ji-Hyun Suh, who made history on the LPGA and now passed that legacy right down to her boy.
