Arpichaya Yubol (Thai: อาภิชญา ยุบล; born 3 May 2002) is a Thai professional golfer playing on the LPGA Tour.
Yubol achieved early success on the Thai LPGA Tour in 2018, including five consecutive wins and the Order of Merit title at the age of 16. Yubol has since competed internationally, with victories at the 2022 LET Access Series Trust Golf Links Series and two gold medals at the Hangzhou Asian Games. Her best finish in a major tournament is a tie for fifth at the 2024 U.S. Women's Open. She achieved her best result on the LPGA Tour at the Riviera Maya Open in 2026, where she finished in solo second place.
Early life
Yubol was born on 3 May 2002 in Saraburi, Thailand.[1][2]
Professional career
Yubol began her professional golf career in 2017 at age 15, achieving early success on the Thai LPGA Tour in 2018 by winning five consecutive titles, which led to her securing the season-long Order of Merit at just 16 years old.[3][4]
In 2022, Yubol continued her ascent by winning decisively at the Trust Golf Links Series at Musselburgh Golf Club on the LET Access Series with a five-stroke margin.[5] Later that year, she successfully passed the LPGA Qualifying School, earning her place on the LPGA Tour for the 2023 season.[6]
At the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, Yubol achieved notable success, winning two gold medals for Thailand in both the Individual and Team competitions, alongside teammates Eila Galitsky and Patcharajutar Kongkraphan. Her victory in the individual event was unexpected, as the previously dominant Indian golfer Aditi Ashok faced challenges in the final round. Yubol's consistent performance throughout the tournament underscored her emerging prominence in international golf.[7]
The 2024 U.S. Women's Open represented a significant achievement for Yubol, as she achieved her highest LPGA Tour finish to date, tying for fifth place despite starting the tournament ranked 245th in the world.[8] In May 2026, Yubol achieved her career-best finish on the LPGA Tour by securing solo second place at the Riviera Maya Open in Mexico, finishing four strokes behind Nelly Korda.[9][10]
