But when it mattered the most, a Birdie from South Korean canned an improbable bunker shot for a birdie on the 72nd hole to win the championship and $560,000, the biggest payoff in women’s golf.
Birdie Kim changed her name from Ju-Yun Kim in 2004 to distinguish herself from other Korean professional golfers (there were seven playing in the U.S. Women’s Open, and five Kims on the LPGA Tour).
The birdie three gave Birdie a one-stroke lead over 17-year-old amateur, Morgan Pressel, who was walking up the 18th fairway when Kim’s ball rolled into the cup and the crowd roared its approval.

 Stage Review: Memories of a life and an era made vivid in 'Birdie'
Birdie's life has been a complex overlay of struggle and satisfaction, filled, in her telling, with pungent humor.
But Birdie's memories also have the feel of a lively visit with a photo album, and her brothers' photos and more famous ones are projected above the set, thickening specific context.
Birdie talks in rueful wisdom: "Some old woman rented my body"; "Can't nobody amuse you like family." Of fl men in search of women, she says, "If they can't get white, they gonna get bright." And, "Every man I know got a question" -- and expects women to have the answer.

Soccer Birdie requires no additional equipment but children have been known to use their shoes and sandals as a paddle or racquet when Soccer Birdie is played like badminton.
They are also calling Soccer Birdie the "best soccer training aid" on the market when it comes to fun, price, convenience, ease of use, foot-eye coordination and keeping players physically fit and active year round.
This spring-like reaction requires less effort by the player to keep the birdie in the air and during its descent the Soccer Birdie feathers slow the fall giving players the time to respond.
