Jenny Shin finished T61 in the recently concluded 2024 TOTO Japan Classic. While this might not be on the list of some of her best performances, she did fire an excellent putt in the 9th hole of the first round to score a birdie. However, the recent development shared by the 32-year-old golfer has left the fans worried.

Looking at the putt, it was so good that the LPGA, LPGA Korea, and Jenny Shin herself shared it on their respective Instagram handles on November 1. While most fans applauded her effort in the comments, one specific individual noticed something completely different in the video. Surprised by the outfit Shin wore, @babs_0502 commented, “Why is she wearing jeans to play golf. Have a little respect for the game.”

In response to @babs_0502’s comment, another one of Jenny Shin’s fans came to the pro’s defense, as @thomfandrews said, “you don’t follow her very closely if you think she’d ever wear denim on the course.” Shin also found the former fan’s comment hilarious as she responded with a “😂.”

But this was not the last social media activity of the South Korean pro. Unlike the ‘jeans’ incident, Jenny Shin’s announcement on her X account was rather disappointing for her fans. She said she had withdrawn from The Annika Driven by Gainbridge at the Pelican tournament, writing, “Had to WD from Pelican to give myself more time to recover and focus on my rehab.”

Regarding her trip to the East, Shin said, “Disappointing Asia swing with injury and WD. Not how I envisioned things to turn out, but I guess there are always different paths laid out for me.”

The heartbreaking news had left the fans surprised and concerned about learning that Shin had picked up an injury. Let’s see what they said.

Jenny Shin received a lot of love from the fans

Her tweet received a lot of love and prayers, hoping for her speedy recovery. @ChipollaDavid said, “Prayers for speedy recovery, see you at the CMA,” indicating that he will be looking forward to Shin’s next appearance. @davidweastburn encouraged Shin to keep her sights set on her goals during her recovery as he commented, “Hang in there, Jenny! Focus on getting healthy, and we’ll be here when you get back. Can’t wait to cheer you on again soon.”

Coming back to Jenny Shin’s original tweet, she also hinted at where she will play next in her tweet. She said, “See you back at Naples, Florida for CME 👋🏻” This means that Shin will be a part of the last LPGA event of the year. We will see her make a comeback at the 2024 CME Group Tour Championship. The 32-year-old will look forward to getting back in form and winning her second LPGA victory.

Further, Swimming coach @@coachlewis2012 also said, “Take care. Relax, recover, come back stronger. You are amazing 🌹❤️.” @starr_stan noticed Shin’s injury on the course itself as they commented, “It was painful watching you walk. Heal quickly you have youth on your side.” Echoing the same sentiment, @mykuiama also added “Praying Jenny for a quick and complete recovery. 😊💕”

One of her fans, @murphinkorea said, “Chin up, come back better and stronger. You had some great rounds on the Asian tour. It was awesome to watch you play in Korea once again,” in order to motivate the South Korean pro.

She will face a lot of competition from the likes of world no. 1 Nelly Korda, Lydia Ko, Charley Hull, and 56 other competitors. We hope she starts training for the challenges ahead once she is done with her rehabilitation. When she does grace the Tiburon Golf Club’s Black Course, do you think she will come back stronger to grab the glory? Let us know in the comments section.
