Annika Sorenstam is arguably the greatest female golfer of all time. Despite her age, however, she is far from done with the sport. The 10-time major winner is ready to take on a new challenge in her illustrious career, as she now heads out to compete in the BMW Ladies Championship on the LPGA Tour from October 19 to 22.

This will be Sorenstam’s first appearance in an LPGA Tour event outside the United States since she retired from competing full-time back in 2008. However, earlier this year, she made a comeback to the sport, even competing in the U.S. Senior Women’s Open, where she finished second. Now the golf legend is heading into uncharted waters as she heads to the land of KPOP. And along the way, she’s turned quite a few heads!

Sorenstam came out of retirement with one goal in mind: her desire to challenge herself and inspire her children, who are also avid golfers, and other youngsters in the sport. And treading along that path, she is now traveling to South Korea to compete on the greens at the BMW Ladies Championship.

The golf pro will be heading to Seowon Valley Country Club when she touches down in Korea; however, along her journey there, she had a surprise for the fans. Announcing her journey to the land of KPOP, Sorenstam took to Instagram.

“Next stop, #seoul #Korea,“ she captioned a series of photos of her at the airport and hilariously added, “blending outfit with luggage.” The Swedish star donned a gorgeous brown and vlack tracksuit, which coincidentally were the same colors as her luggage! The golfer’s stunning and excited post received well wishes from the golf world and beyond, and more importantly, from the BTS Army, a global sensation and South Korea’s pride!

BTS, which stands for Bangtan Sonyeondan, is a seven-member boy band that has taken the world by storm with their catchy songs, charismatic performances, and positive messages. Their fans, called the BTS Army, commented on Sorenstam’s Instagram post, welcoming her to South Korea and wishing her good luck. They also expressed their hope that she would enjoy the culture and music of their country, especially BTS.
