Jeongeun Lee6

She began playing golf at a young age but quit when she was 12 because she found the game "boring." She quit for three years before playing again at age 15.
Her father was paralyzed in an automobile accident when Lee was 4 years old, making it hard for the family to travel to tournaments across Korea, as hotels that could accommodate a wheelchair always cost more, and she was still an amateur.
Lee eventually turned pro and joined the KLPGA in 2016. Because there had been five other women on tour with her exact name, she became known as Jeong Eun Lee 6. The first four Jeong Eun Lee's have retired. To differentiate her from the other LPGA Tour member named Jeong Eun Lee (who is Lee No. 5), Jeongeun Lee also combines the spelling of her first two names into one name.
She embraced the number as her lucky charm, gaining the nicknames Hot 6 and Lucky 6. Later, when she was sponsored by golf clothing manufacturer Pearly Gates, she wore golf clothing branded with 'Lucky 6',
Lee often employs a unique method of reading putts, crouching down perpendicular to the line of her putt to read the break.
