Here's a nice video about the KLPGA's 40th anniversary. It's in Korean, but it's still kind of cool to see some footage from the very beginning. Lots of talking heads from current stars as well. How many can you identify "out of uniform"?

7:24 has a picture of the kickbutt amateur squad that won the women's amateur world championship in 1994 I believe. The players? Hee Won Han, Se Ri Pak, Soo Yun Kang and Mi Hyun Kim (Se Ri is not pictured). Greatness was right around the corner.

For a KLPGA forty anniversary film, they sure showed a lot of Inbee who didn't play on the KLPGA. Sure she won the Olympic but it was about the KLPGA. I think that I caught a glimpse of Mi Hyun Kim, and nothing of So Yeon Ryu.

When I posted, I had watched only the first ten minutes. I like that there was a segment on the Se Ri kids, focusing on Inbee, Na Yeon and Jiyai Shin. It certainly is true that the notion of the two Hall of Famers colluding to win the Olympic Gold Medal is pretty amazing, especially considering the humble start of the KLPGA.
But I agree that Inbee is not really a KLPGA golfer, even if she was inspired by one.
