Sanghun Shin is a South Korean pro who primarily plays on the Korean Tour (KPGA) while frequently testing his game on the Asian Tour. After turning to the paid ranks in late 2018, Shin steadily built his resume on the highly competitive domestic circuit, quickly establishing himself as a formidable talent with elite ball-striking capabilities.
Shin’s defining professional breakthrough arrived in 2022 when he captured his maiden victory at the KPGA Championship, one of the tour’s premier major events. He proved his immense quality once again in 2023 by securing his second domestic title at the prestigious LG Signature Players Championship, emerging victorious from a dramatic playoff to win the season-ending event. Ambitiously seeking to expand his international footprint, he has recently transitioned his focus toward the broader Asia-Pacific region. Gaining playing status on the Asian Tour, he has been an active contender during the 2025 and 2026 seasons, actively competing in marquee, co-sanctioned events like the New Zealand Open as he works to climb the global rankings.
