Contents

Jang plays on the LPGA of Korea Tour where she has 15 wins and led the money list in 2013. From 2015 through 2017, she played on the LPGA Tour where she won her first LPGA event in February 2016 at the Coates Golf Championship. [1] She currently has endorsement deals with Evergreen Group Holdings, C Card, Honma Golf, Lee Dong Soo Sport and Kumho Tires.

The week prior to her LPGA Tour win, Jang became the first LPGA Tour golfer to hit a hole-in-one on a par-4. This occurred at the 8th hole during the third round of the Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic at the Ocean Club. [2]

In May 2017, Jang rescinded her LPGA Tour membership and returned to the LPGA of Korea Tour. [3]
