Lydia Ko
New Zealand golfer Lydia Ko is all set to tie the knot with her partner of two years on 30th December in South Korea according to reports. The 25-year-old will marry Hyundai heir Chung Jun at the city’s Myeongdong Cathedral. The couple began dating around two years ago, declaring their relationship in an instagram post captioned “soon” and with a love emoji.
Chung is the son of Hyundai Card vice chairman Chung Tae-Young, who is considered one of the premier businessmen in Korea. Ko’s father said that he “thought Lydia should get married in two or three years later since she’s an active golfer right now, but she said she wants to marry sooner,” according to stuff.co.nz.

According to reports, Chung studied Philosophy and Data Science at Claremont McKenna College in California. He is currently working at the Hyundai Motor Group‘s subsidiary in San Francisco. Ko on the other hand burst onto the golf scene after winning the Canadian Open at the age of just 15.
In 2015 she became the youngest male or female golfer ever to achieve a top ranking at just 17-years-old. Ko won a silver medal at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics last year. Ko was last in action at the Women’s PGA Championship in Maryland.
