Capsule Bio

Hae Jung Kim started playing golf at the age of 10. She did not play a lot of amateur golf before she turned pro in early 2004. She joined the KLPGA, and won the ADT-CAPS event on that tour in 2005. Hae Jung also collected a win on the Ladies Asian Tour early in 2006.

In late 2006, Kim competed at LPGA Q-School, where she gained non-exempt status on tour for 2007 by finishing tied for 53rd. She returned to Korea in 2007, however, and did not play on the LPGA tour at all. She thus did not keep her card for 2008.

Hae Jung Kim attended 2008 LPGA Qualifying School, but failed to earn a card. Since then, she has played on the KLPGA and their developmental tours.

In 2014, she played on the KLPGA main tour and did decently, finishing 36th with 116 million won earned. Her best results were two 10th place finishes.

Kim finished 78th on the KLPGA money list in 2015. Her best finish was a 28th place. Her money list position for 2016 was just 110th. Her best finish was a 20th.

In 2017, Hae Jung played on the minor league Dream Tour in South Korea. She has not played at all since 2018 and might have retired.
