I was curious if she had an IG account...the answer is yes, but she hasn't posted anything new in over 18 months:

She'll turn 42 in March and is the 2nd oldest player on the JLPGA tour...2018 will be her 22nd season as a pro. There are some interesting insights in the article from last September:

Google Mush highlights:
"My first win in the US, my neck and waist was getting worse, but I just got a note, and it was all shot, and I thought I'd retire, but I did not want to retire when it did not work, or if I did not, it would not be forgotten. I did not want to be evaluated as "
Kang Su-yeon was once called a "lazy genius." The amount of training was much less than the other players. Pak Se Ri and the legendary Kim Mi-hyeon were all about another country for Kang Su-yeon.
"If I did a lot more training, I would not have won more," Kang Soo-yeon said, "If you were like a young man when you were a kid, you probably would not have survived until now."
"From my childhood, I thought quality was more important than the amount of training." What does it mean to have a lot of practice balls or just a long drive in the practice area? I learned how to train and it worked, but I heard a lot about not practicing it. "
As soon as the training came out, Kang Soo - yeon said, "It 's a shame to see juniors running like a racehorse."
Kang Soo-yeon opened 'Kang Su-yeon Golf Academy' at Rivera Country Club in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi-do three years ago. Kang Su-yeon, who says he does not have a lesson there yet because he is devoted to touring, said, "I started because I wanted to have something to do if I retired at any time," but I did not hide that I was dreaming of a new life as a "leader".
"I do not know if you have the qualities of a leader, but I know what's wrong with your juniors' shots," said Kang Soo-yeon, who said, "I have a desire to teach a professional player in the future."
'Coach' Kang Soo-yeon's first disciple is Choi Hye-jin (18), a high school girl star who is lively nowadays. I looked at the shot from two years ago when I was on a break.
When asked about the time of his retirement, Kang Su-yeon said, "I will retire if I lose seed." I do not think I will continue my career as I look back at Seed.
When the marriage talk came out, Kang Soo-yeon, who joked that "I am married to golf," said, "It is not easy for someone who has lived alone for a long time, and I do not feel comfortable after retirement. .

Kang Soo-yeon said, "I was too tired of American life and lost interest in golf, so I did not know how to enjoy golf until my mid-30s."
That's why Kang Su-yeon's 'role model' is Nancy Lopez (USA). Lopez, who was born in 1957, retired in 2003 and then overturned. By 2007, when he was 50 years old, Lopez scored 52 professional wins in his career.
"Nancy Lopez was a professional golfer who really enjoyed playing golf," said Kang Soo-yeon, "but I will not let the club go if I can maintain my seed, "He said.
