Teen golf sensation Ko says no to turning pro

New Zealand's teenage golfing sensation Lydia Ko will resist pressure to turn professional following an eye-catching performance at the Women's Australian Open, her coach said.

Lydia Ko of New Zealand plays a shot during the final round of the Women's Australian Open, in Canberra, on February 17, 2013. The 15-year-old, already the world's number one amateur and the youngest tournament winner in US LPGA history, came close to upsetting South Korea's Shin Ji-Yai before a poor final round saw her relegated to third.
