The year 2025 has dawned. It's the Year of the Snake. Naturally, it's time for the professional sports world to get attention from 'Bam year stars'.
Of course, the KPGA also has many players born in the Year of the Snake. Representatively, players born in 1989 and 2001 are representative.
First of all, it is a season where Youngsoo Kim, born in 1989, is expected to make a leap forward again. Youngsoo Kim shot a career high by winning the 2022 Genesis Awards. He created a reversal atmosphere with his first career win at the Genesis Championship in the best competition, and quickly became the grand prize winner by sweeping the last competition, the LG Signature Players Championship.
As a qualification for the grand prize, he has been active mainly on the DP World Tour since 2023. However, it was not easy and he returned to the KPGA last year. There was no win, but it was a meaningful season just to clear the pain of overseas expansion and to prepare to fly out of the KPGA again.
Yang Ji-ho, who won two tours with Youngsoo Kim, was also born in 1989. I'm looking forward to winning the third championship.

Among the players who will devote themselves to the KPGA, Cho Woo-young and Choi Seung-bin stand out. Asian Games gold medalist Cho Woo-young won his first professional debut at the Charity Classic 2024 last season. There was already one win as an amateur, but the championship cup, which was lifted as a professional, was another meaning. Choi Seung-bin also hinted at the possibility of a long run as he became a KPGA player.
In addition to the two, Kim Baek-joon and Park Joon-hong are also stars who were born in the year of the snake in 2001.
