In-Bee played well on the Futures Tour. Although she did not win an event, she notched multiple top finishes and wound up in third place on the Futures Tour money list. Thus, she earned her exemption for the 2007 LPGA season.

In 2007, In-Bee started to spell her name Inbee, perhaps to make it easier to remember for fans. Her rookie year on tour was a rough struggle at first. Until June, she missed more cuts than she made, and her best finish was a tie for 45th. But all that changed at the US Women's Open. Perhaps remembering how well she had played USGA events as a junior, she did wonderfully there, eventually finishing tied for 4th, by far her best finish of the year. She played well at the British Open as well, just missing a top ten.

Her best result of her career came a few weeks later in Portland. She started the week all right, but on the final day caught fire, shooting a blistering 8 under par 64 that catapulted her all the way into the top five. By the end of the day, her rally was good enough for a tie for second. She finished the year in the top forty on the money list, securing a two year exempt card on tour and winding up fourth in the Rookie of the Year standings. All in all, it had been a wonderful year for her on tour.

If 2007 was a strong season for Inbee, 2008 was a historic one. She quickly notched three straight top tens, including one at the year's first Major, and continued her strong play thereafter. But it was at the US Women's Open that she became a star. The previous year, she had finished tied for 4th, and in 2008, she found herself contending for the title on Sunday. While all around her collapsed, she played brilliantly, eventually capturing the title by four shots. In winning this event, the biggest in all women's golf, she became the third Korean to collect that crown, and the youngest ever champion, beating the record previously held by her idol, Se Ri Pak. She revealed that she had taken up the game only two days after watching Se Ri win this very title in 1998; things had indeed come full circle for the Korean golf explosion.

Inbee struggled a bit after this win, but she still collected more than a million dollars in earnings in 2008. She also earned her first major sponsorship, with SK Telecom, as a direct result of her win. She returned home to Korea as a heroine just a few days after her amazing accomplishment.

Inbee's weird post-Open malaise continued in 2009. She finally started to show signs of life mid-year with a tie for 14th at the LPGA Championship and two other top 30s at the next two Majors. But it wasn't until the end of the year that she finally achieved her first top tens, two in a row to finish the year.

Inbee actually had her best 2009 result on the KLPGA. At the Nefs Masterpiece, she got into a playoff with Bo Mi Lee, but Lee prevailed on the second hole.

At the end of the year, Inbee entered Japanese LPGA Qualifying School. She succeeded in earning a card on the JLPGA, and played both tours in 2010. Indeed, Park's start on the JLPGA tour was nothing short of astonishing. She finished tied for 2nd with Jiyai Shin at her very first JLPGA event of the year, although she lost to another Korean rookie, Sun Ju Ahn, by five shots. In her second event, she actually had the top score at the end of the week, but then was assessed a two stroke penalty for not replacing her ball after it moved on a green. This downgraded her to another second. Shifting to America, she notched yet another 2nd at the Kia Classic, before returning to Japan to once again finish second, this time losing a playoff. She finally got her first win the week after that, but in her next event, she finished - second! All in all, it was a great year in Japan for Inbee. In limited action she notched two wins, her other win being the final event of the year, the Ricoh Cup, which was also a Major. In all, she had 10 top tens in 14 starts.

Her LPGA year was also very impressive. She shattered her record for most top tens in a year, collecting 11, including top tens in all four Majors. She did not win, but had a second (at the aforementioned Kia Classic), a third, and a fourth among those 11 top tens. She finished 11th on the money list, a fantastic return to form after struggling so much after her Open win.

2011 was not so good a season for Park, although she still finished 31st on the money list. On the LPGA tour, she had three top tens. Her best moment came at the Ricoh British Women's Open in August. She shot a second round 64 to move into a share of the lead. She was not able to hold on, however, finishing 7th in the end. She also had a tie for 6th at the US Women's Open, and made it to the round of 16 at the Sybase Match Play.

Inbee did better on the JLPGA in 2011, capturing a win at the Daikin Orchid Ladies Open, the first event of the season. She won by three strokes over Japanese star Miki Saiki, and was 4 ahead of Bo Mee Lee and Bo Bae Song.

In 2012, Inbee Park had a career year, but it didn't start out that way. In her first nine events of the LPGA season, she finished no better than 12th. But starting at the LPGA Championship, she caught fire in a huge way. She finished tied for 9th that week, and proceeded to achieve top ten finishes in ten straight events. Most of those finishes were top threes. She lost in a playoff at the next event, the Manulife Classic. She followed that with a 4th place in Arkansas, a 9th at the US Women's Open, then her first win of the season at the Evian Masters. Her win there was extraordinary, as she carded a mindblowing 22 putts in the final round and just 98 putts over four rounds. That win was her first on the LPGA since her US Women's Open win in 2008.

Inbee was far from done. She finished tied for third at the Farr, followed by a solo second at the Canadian Women's Open (but she made the first place check because she lost to amateur Lydia Ko that week). She had another runner-up finish at the British Open, then her second win of the year at the Sime Darby Malaysia. In all, she earned roughly $1.8 million in her ten tournament streak. This is more money than all but a handful of Koreans have ever earned in an entire season.

Inbee finished the year with two wins, six runner-up finishes and ten top fives. She became the first Korean to ever break $2 million in a single season, and led the tour's money list. Her scoring average of 70.21 also led the league, winning her the Vare Trophy. She led the league in both putting statistics, was second in rounds under par and rounds in the sixties, third in birdies, and second in Player of the Year standings.

Inbee also played on the JLPGA a bit in 2012, winning once and notching several more runner-up finishes. She finished second in three of the year's four Majors, and in all three cases, she had a great chance to win but just came up short. 2012 was a truly amazing breakthrough year for Inbee, who finished the year ranked fourth in the world, her highest spot to date.

Incredibly, as good as her 2012 season was, her 2013 season was a quantum leap forward into rarefied air that left 2012 in the dust. She quickly rose to the top ranking in the world and held onto it the rest of the year. Her record smashing accomplishments established her as the undisputed top player among the Koreans and, for much of the year, the best female player in the world, period. It was one of the very greatest seasons a Korean had ever had, perhaps the very greatest.

Inbee started the year with a second place finish at an LET event in China. At her first LPGA event of the year in Thailand, she looked headed for another runner-up finish as she putted out on her last hole. But the tournament leader, Thai teen Ariya Jutanugarn, imploded with a triple bogey on the final hole, handing the win to Inbee. It would be the first of many victories to come.

The next few events, Inbee was somewhat off her game, but she returned to form in time for the year's first Major. By the third round, Inbee was firmly in charge, and when the only player anywhere close to her stumbled on the first hole of the fourth round, Inbee had a stress free final day to claim her first Kraft Nabisco title and second career Major. She saved some of the pond water for her dad, who was not there, so she could later pour it over his head!

Shortly after that win, Inbee rose to #1 in the world for the first time in her career. She did a good job staying there, She finished 4th at the next tournament, then won her third title of 2013 at the North Texas Shootout. She had another top ten and her only missed cut of the year after that. But at the year's second Major, the LPGA Championship, Inbee was once again ready to go. She established the lead and seemed poised for another Major triumph. But on the final few holes, she struggled, falling back to the field. Somehow she hung on to tie Catriona Matthew and force a playoff. Amazingly, she refocused and played great during the three hole playoff, making birdie to seal her second straight Major win.

Inbee's win sparked a brilliant June in which she went undefeated. It was in all likelihood the greatest month a Korean golfer has ever had. Her fifth win of the year came at the NW Arkansas tournament. Good friend So Yeon Ryu four-putted to fall out of the lead, but clawed back to force a playoff with Inbee. But it only took one hole for Park to claim another trophy.

Then came the highlight of Inbee's entire career to date. At the US Women's Open played at Sebonack, she was paired with #2 and #3 in the world the first two rounds and thoroughly dominated. #2 Suzann Pettersen missed the cut, while #3 Stacy Lewis was not a factor again. Inbee's lead was so strong that by the middle of the third round only IK Kim was anywhere close. Kim tried her best, but could not carve into Inbee's advantage, and Inbee sailed to her third straight Major win and second US Women's Open trophy. She became only the second woman in LPGA history to win the year's first three Majors, starting talk of the almost inconceivable Calendar Year Grand Slam (the other to do this did it in the first year the LPGA existed, in 1950). She also became the first Korean to win the Open twice, the first to win three Majors in a season, and the first, of course, to win three Majors in a row. It was also her third straight win in a row, making her the first Korean to ever do THAT.

Inbee would not win again in 2013, however. She struggled a bit under the weight of media scrutiny and did not contend at the last two Majors. But she did rally at the end of the year as Pettersen started to close the gap on her for Player of the Year. Park made two top fives to end her year and clinch the Player of the Yeat trophy. At last, after fifteen years, a Korean had captured the one award that had eluded them all in the past. For good measure, she also won the money list for the second straight year, making more money than any Korean in history (nearly $2.5 million). She also shattered her scoring record by .3 of a point, going under 70 for the first time. And she had by the end of the year stayed #1 in the world longer than any Korean before her.

Inbee was understandably distracted in 2014, as she planned to get married to her longtime fiancé Gi Hyeob Nam in October. She did not win early on, although she started her year with four straight top tens including a runner-up at the Honda Thailand in defense of her title. Inbee did win an LET event in China in April, fending off Suzann Pettersen in a great mano-a-mano battle in the final round. But Inbee did not get her first LPGA win until June, when she shot a final round 61, her best ever score, to capture the Manulife Financial LPGA Classic.

Inbee had a great chance to complete her career Grand Slam at the British Open. Leading going into the final round, she struggled all day, and was not able to make the shots she needed to take the title. She finished fourth. The next event, however, was the first ever International Crown. Inbee teamed with So Yeon Ryu to win two matches. As it turned out, Korea and the US were tied for the final spot; only one team would advance to the final day. Inbee and So Yeon teamed to take down the Americans Lexi Thompson and Cristie Kerr, and Korea advanced.

That playoff win seemed to energize the entire Korean contingent on the LPGA. Whereas before that they had only one win in 2014, after that, Koreans went on a tear. At the next event, the Meier Classic, Inbee wound up in a playoff with rookie Mirim Lee, but it was Lee who won. The next event after that was the LPGA Championship. Inbee charged into the playoff after making two clutch putts on the final two holes. One hole of playoff with Brittany Lincicome was all it took for Inbee to claim her fifth career Major. She tied Se Ri Pak for most Majors by any Korean in history.

Inbee continued to make top ten after top ten, threatening to catch Stacy Lewis for the #1 spot in the rankings (Park had lost the #1 to Lewis just before her Manulife win). The week of the Hana Bank, she married Nam, with four LPGA stars serving as bridesmaids (Ryu, Na Yeon Choi, IK Kim and Ji Young Oh). Just a few days later, she was in contention at the event, but came up one birdie short of the playoff won by KLPGA star Kyu Jung Baek.

Not to worry: Inbee climbed to the #1 spot after a runner-up finish at the KLPGA's final Major, the KB Star Tour. She then faced down and beat Lewis at the Fubon Championship in Taiwan for her third win of the year. Inbee would hang onto the #1 ranking for the rest of the year.

Inbee also had a shot at catching Lewis for the LPGA Player of the Year, trailing by just three points entering the year's final event. But Lewis hung on and won all the big awards. Inbee had to settle for #2 on the money list, her third straight season with more than $2 million earned. She was also #2 in POY and Scoring Average.(her average of 69.68 was her lowest yet). Inbee also had 17 top tens, her career best and one of the best top ten totals for a Korean in LPGA history. Another amazing year for the Korean superstar!

Not surprisingly, Inbee had another phenomenal season in 2015. She started the year the number one golfer in the world, but eventually was caught and passed by Lydia Ko, who then became the youngest woman to ever reach the top spot. Inbee got the top ranking back after the summer, only to lose it to Ko again towards the end of the year.

Inbee missed a top ten in her first start, but finished 5th and 7th in her next two. Then came one of her great streaks of the year. Starting in the third round of the Honda Thailand event, extending through the entire HSBC Champions, and going a few holes into the next event, Inbee notched 94 straight holes without a bogey. During the HSBC, she wound up playing her Sunday round with the other top two golfers in the world, Lydia Ko and Stacy Lewis. Park simply outplayed them, unflappable as always, to collect her first win of the year.

A few weeks later, Inbee was again in the final group, this time at the Lotte Championship. It seemed like she had her second win of the year in the bag when Sei Young Kim hit her drive on the final hole into the water. But Kim made a chip-in par save to force a playoff, then dunked an unbelievable 153 yard shot for eagle on the playoff hole to win. Inbee had to settle for second.

A few weeks after that, Inbee won her second North Texas shootout with a scintillating final round 65 that could have been even lower had a few bad breaks not occurred. In June, Inbee once again found herself in the final group on Sunday with Sei Young Kim, this time at a Major, the KPMG Women's PGA Championship (formerly known as the LPGA Championship). Park was a two time defending champion, and though this event was played on its third different course in three years, Park simply seized control at the turn, winning by five strokes. Her score tied the lowest with relation to par in Major history. It was her sixth Major, the most an Asian player had ever achieved in history. And she became the first Korean to ever win the same event three years in a row, and of course the first to win a Major three years running. As a bonus, she reclaimed the #1 ranking.

A few weeks later, Inbee was in the hunt at the US Women's Open. But she just couldn't get her putts to fall, and wound up third. Two weeks after that, she was in Scotland, looking for her first Women's British Open title. She had been cruelly denied in 2014, and coming into the ifnal round, she was chasing KLPGA star Jin Young Ko, who had led for several rounds and seemed to have fate on her side. But nothing was going to stop Inbee. She had another of her legendary final rounds, making an eagle on 14 to move to within one, then making a birdie on the brutal 16th to take the lead. Ko made a double on that same hole moments later, and Park had her 7th career Major. The win also sealed the Annika Award for Best Major record in 2015, and the career Grand Slam to boot!

Amazingly, Inbee still had some surprises left in store. She had moved to within just 2 points of qualifying for the Hall of Fame. But that's when Lyida Ko went on a tear, winning the Evian and two other events to reclaim the #1 ranking and the lead in the scoring average and Player of the Year. Park struck back, winning the Lorena Ochoa Invitational to move to within 3 points of Ko in the Player race and ahead of her in scoring (and one point from the Hall). Their battle came down to the final hole of the year. Park finished ahead of Ko and won the Vare Trophy, but Ko finished high enough to hold Park off for the Player of the Year award. Park's season money total was the highest ever achieved by a Korean, but Ko's was still higher. Inbee's scoring average, meanwhile, was the all time lowest for a Korean. And her Vare win gave her the final point she needed to qualify for the Hall. She will officially be a member after playing ten events in 2016. Inbee is just the second Korean to ever make it into the Hall of Fame.

2016 was in some ways the toughest season of Inbee's career, and in some ways the most glorious. She struggled right out of the gate with two nagging injuries: a lower back problem, and a far more damaging left thumb strain. These two problems affected her so much that it became a chore for her to even finish a tournament, much less contend. After a runner-up finish at the Kia Classic, a tie for 6th at the ANA Inspiration, and a 68th in Hawaii, Park would not make a cut or complete a four round tournament the rest of the season.

At Sahalee at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, Park was going for her fourth win in a row. She missed the cut, but by playing there completed ten events for 2016, which qualified her at last for the Hall of Fame, the second Korean to make it into the Hall. The first Korean Hall of Famer, Se Ri Pak, was there to congratulate her after her first round, as were several other Hall of Famers.

Inbee qualified for the International Crown, but had to drop out due to injury and was replaced by So Yeon Ryu. She also skipped the remaining three Majors of the season (and indeed, the KPMG was her final start of the 2016 LPGA year). But she was determined to play the Olympics, even though the Korean media was openly questioning whether she should give up her spot to someone healthier. Park played a KLPGA event two weeks before Rio and missed the cut, which didn't help her case.

But go to Rio she did, and she was clearly bound and determined to prove the naysayers wrong. She bolted out of the gate with back to back 66s to take a slight lead into the weekend, then produced a 70 in tough conditions to increase her lead to two. In the final round, she was paired with world #1 Lydia Ko, but didn't stumble for a minute. After throwing out three straight birdies starting at hole 3, she increased her lead to five, and never was threatened again. She won the gold medal by five strokes, tying the biggest margin of victory in her entire career. It was the crowning glory of her life: back in South Korea, nearly a quarter of the population watched live, even though the golf ended at 1:30 AM local time. All three networks covered that round. Facing the greatest pressure she had ever faced, with the most doubt she had known, she came through as only a true champion can.

At the end of the year, Inbee hosted the ING Champions, a team event pitting the best Koreans from the LPGA tour against the stars of the KLPGA. Inbee was an unofficial non-playing captain for the LPGA (Eun Hee Ji was the actual captain). The LPGA won 13-11.

Inbee still struggled with injuries in 2017, although she managed to play pretty well in the first part of the season. In fact, after a modest return to action in Thailand, she followed that up with the 18th win of her career at the HSBC Women's Champions in Singapore. It was vintage Inbee: in the final round, she was paired with long bomber Ariya Jutanugarn, and defeated her by making every long putt in sight. Even Ariya was impressed by the end.

A few weeks later, Inbee put herself into contention at the controversial ANA Inspiration. Thanks to a four stroke penalty on Lexi Thompson, Inbee had a chance to join a playoff for the title, but just missed a birdie putt on the final hole and had to settle for a tie for third.

Inbee played well much of the rest of the year, but growing problems with her back forced her to end her season at the British Women's Open in August. In all, she had 5 top tens, five additional top twenties, and only one missed cut. She earned $755,000 and finished 25th on the money list, not bad for 2/3 of a season when she was injured for much of it. Her scoring average was 69.67, fifth in the league.

In December, Inbee hosted the ING Champions team event, which pitted the LPGA against the KLPGA. She played two of the rounds, but lost when paired with good friend So Yeon Ryu. The LPGA narrowly lost to the KLPGA for the first time.

Inbee did not play as much golf in 2018, even though she was fairly healthy most of the season. Coming back from her long injury timeout, she won her second event back, the Founders Cup, for her 19th career win. A few weeks later, she was in the hunt at the ANA Inspiration, looking for her eighth career Major. Despite playing brilliantly, she could not shake Pernilla Lindberg, a journeyman player from Sweden who had never won on tour before. They wound up in a playoff with Jennifer Song. Song was eliminated after three holes, but after five, darkness prevented further player. Returning Monday, they went three more holes before Lindberg upset the Hall of Famer for the win.

Inbee did not win again in 2018, but she did return to the #1 ranking for a couple of months, the first woman to ever be #1 at four different times. In the Spring, she had another runner up and a third place finish.

Other than the Majors, Inbee played only two events after May. She managed a tie for 8th at the Evian and a 9th at the US Women's Open, but missed the cut at the other two Majors, the first time she had ever missed back-to-back cuts at Majors in her career.

Inbee also played a few times on the KLPGA. She won the Doosan Match Play, an event she had finished runner-up in the previous year. Amazingly, this was her first ever professional win in Korea. She also finished second at the KB Star Championship, the KLPGA's final Major.

Inbee also qualified for the International Crown, but decided to give up her spot to allow another Korean star a chance to play. In Gee Chun ended up taking her spot. The Koreans won the Crown for the first time in the Fall.

Inbee hosted the OrangeLife Champions team event again. Representing the LPGA, she played two team rounds and sat out the singles. She teamed with good friend So Yeon Ryu to top the KLPGA power team of Ji Hyun Oh and Hye Jin Choi. She also teamed with Jeongeun Lee to square their match. The LPGA won 13-11.

2019 was a strange season for Inbee. Tee to green, she was as strong as she's ever been, and for once she was uninjured most of the year. As a result, she played all through the season. But for some reason, her putting, normally her trademark, was really off. As a result, she had a number of good tournaments, but was not able to win. Inbee had ties for second at Arkansas and the Kia Classic. She had 6 total top tens, and earned a bit more than $781,000, good for 26th on the money list.

Inbee once again hosted the OrangeLife Champions trophy, a team event pitting the best of the LPGA against the best of the KLPGA. She lost 4 & 2 when teamed with Danielle Kang against Hye Jin Choi and Hee Jeong Lim, and squared a match teamed with So Yeon Ryu against Jung Min Lee and Ji Young Kim. She skipped the singles matches.

Inbee became determined to make the 2020 Olympics team. When the year started, she was ranked 16th, in 6th place among Koreans (only the top 4 make it). To improve her chances, she played in January for the first time in four years. She did well; she lost in a playoff at the Tournament of Champions and, just a few weeks later, won the Australian Ladies Open to collect her 20th career win.

Shortly thereafter, the whole world was rocked by the Covid-19 pandemic. The LPGA and KLPGA tours canceled and postponed many tournaments. Inbee returned to Korea and played occasionally on the KLPGA before returning to the LPGA for the British Women's Open in mid-August. The Olympics were postponed until 2021, giving Inbee more time to qualify for the team.

In Korea, Inbee played at the Samdasoo Ladies Masters, finishing 15th. She also teamed with So Yeon Ryu to play a screen golf match against Lydia Ko and Pernilla Lindberg, who were in the States. Lastly, she hosted the annual KLPGA-LPGA team event, the OrangeLife Champions, which this year took place in the summer. Inbee teamed with JLPGA player Min Young Lee in round one, but lost to Min Ji Park and Ji Young Kim, 3 & 2. The second round was canceled due to weather. She sat out the singles. The KLPGA won again, 10.5 to 7.5.

After returning to the LPGA, Inbee had another great year. She finished 4th at the British Women's Open. At the KPMG, she was in an epic battle with Sei Young Kim, who was looking for her first career Major. She got to within one before Kim made 4 birdies in five holes to win the event by 5. Inbee finished second. Inbee also had a tie for 6th at the US Women's Open.

Inbee led the Player of the Year race going into the final event, but Sei Young finished second there to move ahead of Inbee and claim the award. Inbee's scoring average was third in the league and higher than the eventual Vare Trophy winner Danielle Kang, but Inbee missed the minimum number of rounds needed by three, and so Kang got the award.

Inbee earned $1.378 million, third on the money list. She had 8 top tens, including a win, three runner-ups, and a 4th. She ended the year ranked third in the world.

2021 was another good but not great year for Inbee, with another win the highlight. She earned $1.11 million and finished 12th on the money list.

She started off strong, easily winning the first event she played, the Kia Classic. She finished t-2nd just a few weeks later at the Lotte Champinship, but was actually 7 shots behind the winner Lydia Ko. She also managed a t-7th at the ANA Inspiration, but again not really close enough to win.

She did not win again in 2021, but came closest at the ShopRite Classic in the Fall, where she missed a short putt to get into a playoff with the winner Celine Boutier. In all, she had 8 top tens.

Her great play qualified her to represent Korea in the Olympics, where she tried to defend her gold medal from 2016. She started well but faded to t-23rd by the end, the worst finish among the four Korean Olympians.

2022 was one of the weakest years Inbee had had since joining the tour. She missed five cuts, a huge number of misses for her. She didn't have any wins and didn't play that well for the most part in Majors; she skipped the US Women's Open, missed the cut at the Evian, and had a best Major finish of tie for 22nd at the British Women's Open. She had a total of just three top tens, her best a tie for third at the DIO Implant. Her final event of the year was in August.

Inbee might have been distracted; in early 2023, she announced that she was pregnant with her first child. The due date would be in April, so she took the entirety of the 2023 season off for maternity leave. She gave birth on April 21st to a baby girl they named In Seo. Although Inbee did not play in 2023, she did later in the year do some commentating for KLPGA events. She has indicated that she is interested in returning to golf at some point but is in no hurry at the moment.
