Biography of Meena Lee -

Meena Lee (born 25 December 1981 in Jeon-Ju, South
Korea) is one of the many South Korean golfers on
the U.S. based LPGA Tour. 

Lee took up golf at the age of fourteen, which is
unusually late for a future professional golfer,
but just a few years later, in 2000, she became
the Korean Amateur Champion. She turned
professional in 2002, one year before graduating
from Yong-In University. She won three events on
the LPGA of Korea Tour in her rookie season in
2002 and topped the money list. In 2003 she won
one tournament and came fifth on the money list.

In 2004 Lee played on the second tier Futures Tour
in the United States. She had a only a moderately
successful season and finished 23rd on the money
list, but she won an LPGA Tour card for 2005 by
finishing tied for 25th at the LPGA Final
Qualifying Tournament. She made a steady start to
her rookie season and in July was a surprise
finalist in the inaugural HSBC Women's World Match
Play Championship, which she lost to Colombia's
Marisa Baena by one hole. Two weeks later she won
for the first time on the LPGA Tour at the BMO
Financial Group Canadian Women's Open.
