Hyun Hwa Sim

Fully exempt into the 2012 U.S. Women's Open by her top-five finish on the 2011 KLPGA money list.
Shim started her professional career by trying to qualify for the LPGA and Futures Tour in America in 2007. She missed the cut at both qualifiers, and so returned to Korea and joined the Jump Tour, a developmental tour of the KLPGA. She played well enough there to make the KLPGA tour in 2009. She finished 23rd on the money list in her rookie year, with third place finish her best.
Shim's 2010 season on the KLPGA was much like her first year. She produced 5 top-10s and finished 30th on the money list.
And then came the 2011 season. Shim burst from the pack to become one of the very best players on tour; several times during the season, she was the very top player. It started with an 8th place at the China Ladies Open. She won the very next event to vault to the top of the money list. After that, she had top-10s in five of the next six events.
Shim faded somewhat over the next few months, but she rebounded towards the end of the season with several more top-20s, including a second place at the second to last event of the year. In all, she managed 10 top-10s and made over 340 million won ($258,655 USA) to finish second on the year's money list.
Played in the 2012 Kraft Nabisco Championship; missed the cut after rounds of 77-73. Won her first professional tournament at the Korea Ladies' Professional Golf Tour Lotte Mart Ladies Open. Tied for 25th at the LPGA Hana Bank Championship in 2011.
