Bio:Shin Ae Ahn joined the KLPGA tour in 2009 and had a very solid rookie year. She made four top tens including a fifth and finished 21st on the money list. This was good enough to earn her the Rookie of the Year award on tour in 2009.
2010 was Shin Ae Ahn's breakout season. She won her first event on the KLPGA in late July at the Hidden Valley Women's Open. It looked like superstar So Yeon Ryu had the win locked up when she suddenly made a bogey and double bogey to fall back to Earth. Ahn, meanwhile, shot a 7 under par 65 and established a clubhouse lead of 12 under par. This would hold up for a three shot victory.
Ahn would win again on tour just a few weeks later. After a 4th in her next event, she played the rain shortened High One Resort SBS Charity Women's Open. Like at her first win, she shot a great final round score to seize the lead. This time, she wound up in a playoff with Hyun Hee Moon, but won that on the first playoff hole.
In all, Shin Ae had 8 top tens in 2010 and finished third on the KLPGA money list.
