DURHAM, N.C. – Duke University women's golf senior Gina Kim announced Wednesday she will turn professional and forgo her remaining eligibility with the Blue Devils. She is set to make her LPGA debut this month, after earning her LPGA Tour card in December at Q Series.
Kim, a native of Durham, N.C., made an immediate impact for Duke since arriving in 2018-19 as she played a pivotal role in helping lead the Blue Devils to the NCAA Championship in 2019 in Fayetteville, Ark. She went on to earn All-America honors on two occasions, All-ACC in 2019 and 2021 and Women's Golf Coaches Association (WGCA) Scholar All-American accolades all three years.
