PHOENIX – Inbee Park revealed the secret to her Olympic gold medal victory last summer in Rio de Janeiro.
“I’ve never been so desperate for a good result in my whole career,” Park said Wednesday at the Bank of Hope Founders Cup.
Park said the pressure she was under in South Korea made her desperate. With Park leaving the LPGA for two months leading into the Olympics because of a thumb injury, there was pressure on her to give up her spot on the South Korean team to a healthy player. She was heavily criticized.
