Official Porsche dealer Deutsche Autos named Park, a professional on the Korean Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) Tour, as the new Deutsche Autos Taikan Ambassador at the Porsche Centre Suwon on 15 May.
Deutsche Autos is the authorised dealer of Porsche Korea and is responsible for sales and service of Porsches in Suwon, Gwangju, Changwon and Jeju. The Porsche Taycan 4S, which Park will be driving, is Porsche's first all-electric car of 2020 and features an eco-friendly, futuristic design and innovative technology while retaining the traditional Porsche DNA.
Park is one of the most popular players on the KLPGA Tour, often referred to as the 'doll on the field'. She joined the KLPGA Tour in 2014 after competing for South Korea at the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, where she won gold in the individual event and silver in the team event. She recently surpassed the $2 billion mark in career earnings after winning the 2018 SK networks-Seoul Economic Ladies Classic. She boasts a high fairway hit rate with her precise driver, and is loved by fans for her unique fashion and lifestyle as well as her game.
"We are very pleased to have Park, one of the most popular players on the KLPGA Tour, as a 'Deutsche Autos Tycan Ambassador'," said Hyunseok Bae, CEO of Deutsche Autos. "Together with Park, who is loved by the public not only for his golf but also for his lifestyle, we are looking forward to promoting the stable ride and powerful performance of the Porsche Tycan, as well as sharing memorable events with Deutsche Autos customers."
"I am honoured to be associated with the German sports car brand Porsche and Deutsche Autos, and I am looking forward to the exciting activities we will create together," said Park. "I will continue to strive to be as smooth and strong as Taikan to repay my sponsors and fans for their support."
Park will be driving her hand-picked Porsche Taikan 4S across the country in the 2024 season, competing in KLPGA Tour events, and will also participate in various marketing activities with Deutsche AUTO to interact with Deutsche AUTO customers and fans.
