After a wire-to-wire win five weeks ago at the Sony Open in Hawaii, K.J. Choi starts strong again at the Northern Trust Open, held at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California.
Here is a little background on the 34 year old. Before winning his 7th tournament on the PGA Tour this January, he was the first Korean golfer ever to win on the PGA Tour. Before winning on the PGA Tour, he was the first Korean golfer to ever earn a PGA Tour Card.
Choi's unique golf swing, which looks powerful but mechanical, might be a result of the powerlifting days of his youth. One K.J. Choi fan site claims that he could squat 350 pounds by the time he was 13 years old.
His full name is Kyoung-Ju Choi.
