OCALA, Fla. – Lydia Ko is looking to hit the accelerator this season.
With a new Lexus RC F Sports Coupe, her first car, the 18-year-old wunderkind is finally driving. She got her learner’s permit in the offseason and is enjoying being behind the wheel of her new vehicle when she’s cruising around her American home.
“Whoever is around Orlando or ChampionsGate, I would recommend not being on the road when I am,” Ko joked. “Everybody said it’s the same as a golf cart, but it’s nothing like a cart. It goes so much faster.
