<p>Christina Kim is a professional <a href="/biography/christina-kim">golfer</a> from the United States who currently competes on the LPGA Tour and the Ladies European Tour (LET). Her lively style of play, flashy attire, and outgoing demeanor has earned her a prominent reputation. Christina has five professional wins, including three LPGA tours, one Ladies European Tour, and one Symetra Tour. Since 2009, Kim has been a full-time professional player.</p>

<h2>Background</h2>

<p>Christina Kim was born in San Jose, California, on March 15, 1984. She is Man Kim's <a href="/biography/christina-kim">daughter</a>. She does not come from a well-known family; thus, much about her early life and parents is unknown. In the beginning, her father served as her caddie. Kim attended De Anza Community College after graduating from high school. Christina stands at the height of five feet and six inches.</p>

<h2>Golfing Career</h2>

<p>As soon she was 18, she matured as a professional golf player and participated in the Future Tours in 2002 for prize money. She ended with twelve T-10 finishes. In 2002, her first win as a professional came in The H.P. Garden State Summer Classic. She was second on the money list after <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillermo_Ochoa">Ochoa</a>.</p>

<p>In 2004, Kim won the Longs Drugs Challenge and Mitchell Company Champion's Tournament 2005. She was among the top players of the U.S. Solemn Cup teams in 2005, 2009, and 2011.</p>

<p>She was the younger to earn $1 million in 2004 when she was only 20 years old. Her record was short-lived as <a href="/biography/paula-creamer">Paula Creamer</a> broke it in the following year.</p>

<p>In 2010, she was on the Ladies European Tour, and she took part in 6 competitions; two of them were jointly assigned with LPGA.</p>

<p>She earned her first win on the LET in 2011 when she competed at the Sicilian Italian Ladies Open.</p>

<h2>Depression</h2>

<p>Kim was always considered to be a cheerful person and possesses an open personality. She always wears a smile and has a positive and respectful player towards her opponents. Few people knew that she experienced lows in her personal life, and she sometimes felt so disturbed when she got into an uncomfortable zone.</p>

<p>Many people were enlightened about her depression and her fight with it via her blog. Then, her depression was on a level where she even thought of committing suicide.</p>

<p>That year, she faced an all-time low in her career with no wins, not being ranked on the T-10 list, and only won small earnings. She was at a distance with the clubs, her swing was not accurate, and her confidence shattered.</p>

<p>Kim wrote on the blog about the pain she was going through after her poor performance in a Ladies' European Tour, Spain.</p>

<p>She again stated that she was on treatment and her boyfriend came as a great help. She started recovering from her depression and sad feelings.</p>

<p>During her depression and bad performances, she also missed the LPGA Q-School finals in 2012. She finished at 39th place.</p>

<h2>Brighter Days</h2>

<p>On September 16, 2014, Kim was on a plane to begin a 35,000-mile LPGA Tour that would last eight weeks and span seven countries. It would be a long trip, but it was not something that the Kangol-wearing Kim had not already encountered earlier in her career.</p>

<p>She had to bring two carry-on bags that weighed 80 pounds combined. She also had her golf bag and other luggage that weight 70 pounds in the plane's cargo. The amount of luggage she brought on the plane was symbolic of her recovery from depression. She was no longer an empty soul drifting aimlessly. She was now focused and started to gain her mental weight. She was rebuilding herself and brought all of herself onto the plane.</p>

<p>After regaining a firmer grasp on her life, she was ready to move on. She felt that she defeated depression and overcame the injuries that once gave her suicidal thoughts. She was prepared to put the negative and dark clouds behind her. She was ready to start a new chapter in her life and move on to happier days. In her new journey, she would travel to China twice, Taiwan, Korea, Malaysia, Japan, and Mexico.</p>

<p>At the LPGA Tour's season finale, which took place in the United States, she competed at the CME Group Tour Championship at Tiburon Golf Club.</p>

<p>During her travel, things might have set her off and triggered some negative emotions for her past. Tedious things like doing laundry, dealing with currency exchange, and tiny decisions seemed to set her depression off as they appeared small but could end up being big problems for a person with depression.</p>

<p>Luckily for Kim, she was actually over her depression, and none of those minor annoyances were going to get in her way of living a healthier and happier life, "I was in a better place starting this year," Kim said before a practice round. "I didn't know what I was going to encounter. But I knew nothing would be as hard as life was for me from 2010 through 2012.</p>

<p>At her darkest hour, she had thoughts of jumping off a balcony or a bridge or driving into oncoming traffic to end her life. She was able to turn things around once she started to appreciate the small things in her life. She counted the small blessings like waking up to see a new day as a pro golfer. She trusted her big prayers, like having a loving support network that consisted of her friends and family. She knew that she did not have to fight the battle alone. She could always count on her support network to help her face anything she came across. She no longer had to dwell on anything because she had love to push her through.</p>

<h2>Awards</h2>

<p>She has four professional wins on her resume winning the LPGA two times. Additionally, She won the LET once and also the Symetra cup one time. Kim loves to write and is a lover of music, dancing, reading, and loves wines and being among friends.</p>

<p>Christina Kim's net worth is estimated to be more than $5 Million. She has amassed the majority of her net worth during her two-decade career in golf. Kim became the LPGA's youngest player to earn a million dollars in her career in 2005.</p>

<p>Christina's career earnings surpassed $2 million at the Wegmans LPGA in 2007.
