( CNN ) -- South Korea 's Inbee Park says she will consider it a grand slam if she wins next month 's British Open . A day after becoming the first player since Ben Hogan in 1953 to win the first three majors of the season , Park is not concerned by the presence of five women 's majors this year . `` Yes , of course , I think so , '' Sunday 's U.S. Women 's Open winner told CNN World Sport when asked if success at the British Open would constitute a grand slam . `` Even though there are five majors , I think winning four is very , very good . '' This is the first year in which there will be five majors on the schedule , after the Evian Championship in France was elevated in status . By winning at the Sebonack course in Southampton by four strokes , the World No . 1 put herself in contention to become the first golfer -- male or female -- to win four major championships in a season . Having won the Kraft Nabisco Championship in April and the Wegmans LPGA Championship earlier this month , she has already matched the record of the legendary Babe Zaharias , who won three majors in 1950 . When Zaharias achieved her milestone only three majors were on the schedule , while Mickey Wright ( 1961 ) and Pat Bradley ( 1986 ) are the only other players in LPGA history to win three majors in a season -- but the latter two women failed to achieve consecutive wins . Park , 24 , says she was well aware of the history coming her way as she drove off on Sunday . `` I felt the pressure because I was going for three in a row and everything that was going on was very crazy -- but once I got on the course , I was very calm , '' she said . `` It 's crazy what I 've just done . I never would have thought I would have done that ever . `` I am achieving things I never thought I would get , but I am getting there one step at a time . I do n't know how far I will go . '' Winning a fifth major in the season , with the Evian Championship taking place in September , would represent a milestone in the history of golf . Although an arguably slim prospect , Park 's record in her last 24 starts -- with eight victories coming on top of five runner-up finishes -- suggests she is likely to be in contention at both events . The Seoul-born golfer won her first major in 2008 at the U.S. Women 's Open but had to wait until earlier this year to add that success . South Koreans have won seven of the last nine major LPGA titles and Park is hopeful she can continue that remarkable run at St Andrews in August . `` I played very well at the British Open in the last couple of years so I am really looking forward to going there , '' added a woman who turned professional in 2006 .
Inbee Park believes fourth major would constitute a 'grand slam ' South Korean has won U.S. Women 's Open , Kraft Nabisco and Wegmans LPGA this year . The last time the United States had four majors in one calendar year
