Lydia Ko, a Korean-born New Zealand golfer, made the Time magazine's 2014 list of the world’s 25 most influential teenagers. 

After going pro last year, Ko now ranks third in the world women’s golf rankings. In April, Ko was named one of the world's 100 most influential people by the magazine.

Other teenagers on the list, released on Monday (local time), include U.S. President Barack Obama's two daughters (Sasha Obama, 13, and Malia Obama, 16);  Malala Yousafzai, a Pakistani who jointly won this year's Nobel Peace Prize for her "heroic struggle" for girls' rights to education; Hong Kong pro-democracy student leader Joshua Wong; Mo'ne Davis, a female Little League Baseball pitcher from Philadelphia; and U.S. singer Austin Mahone.
