Ko’s amazing record

The Herald reports:

Lydia Ko’s dominance of world golf is well noted.

The youngest person ever to win a professional golf tour event. The youngest person ever to win an LPGA Tour event. The youngest player to be ranked number one. And now, the youngest woman to win a major championship, after – yes, another record – a record lowest final round in a women’s golf major.

Even if the All Blacks win the World Cup, I think Ko should be the Halberg Supreme Winner.

Being the best in the world in a globally competitive sport (tennis, golf, football, athletics, swimming) is a harder task than winning in a sport relatively few countries compete in.
