Lydia Ko’s decision to retire at the age of 30 has been a major blow to golf enthusiasts worldwide. The 27-year-old, who recently won a gold medal at the Paris Olympics and was inducted into the LPGA Hall of Fame, seemed to have an illustrious career ahead of her. However, her plans for retirement may have changed.
In a recent interview before her participation in the ISPS HANDA Women’s Scottish, Ko was asked about her views on retiring at 30. She admitted that she had made that statement ten years ago and wasn’t sure why she had set that age as her retirement goal. She emphasized that she still had other goals to achieve and was not simply playing on the tour without purpose. Ko expressed her gratitude for her career so far but stated that she had not yet set an end date.
These comments provide some hope for fans who were disappointed by the news of Ko’s retirement plans. It appears that she is reconsidering her decision and may continue playing beyond the age of 30. This uncertainty has generated excitement within the golf community, as everyone eagerly awaits to see what the future holds for this legendary player.
