After securing the top spot in the 2013 Korea Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) Tour qualifying tournament, Baek Gujeong swept three victories during her rookie season in 2014 at the Nexen·Saintnine Masters, the Lotte Cantata Ladies Open, and the major MetLife·Korea Economic Daily KLPGA Championship, earning the Rookie of the Year title. In particular, she formed the "Rookie Big 3" alongside Ko Jin-young and Kim Minseon, bringing fresh energy to the tour.

In October 2014, Baek Gujeong won the LPGA Tour Hana·Korea Exchange Championship held in Korea, which led her to move to the United States the following year. However, she was unable to achieve strong results on the LPGA Tour and returned to Korea after three years. After losing her regular KLPGA Tour card at the end of 2019, she has since been active in various fields, including broadcasting.
