Hwang Yu-min, in his second year on the tour, won the Doosan Engineering & Construction We’ve Championship in the domestic opening match that ended on the 7th and reached his second win in his career.
After finishing in a tie for 12th place at the Hana Financial Group Singapore Women’s Open, the season opener, she rose to a tie for 4th place in the Blue Canyon Ladies Championship and won the title early on.
Hwang Yu-min is currently ranked first in prize money (252.66 million won) and first in grand prize points (106 points). Second place in both categories is Kim Jae-hee with a prize money of 208.68 million won and 70 grand prize points.
Hwang Yu-min said through the KLPGA, “I have set my goal for this season to be many wins,” and expressed his ambition, “I will look back on the shots I lacked last week, make up for them, and play better to challenge myself to win for two weeks in a row and achieve my goal for this season.”
Hana Financial Group Singapore Women’s Open champion Kim Jae-hee and Blue Canyon Ladies Championship winner Lee Ye-won are also competing to be first to win their second win of the season.
Bang Shin-sil and Park Hye-jun, ranked 4th and 5th in prize money, are also trying for their first win of the season.
Defending champion Lee Joo-mi took the opportunity to defend her title for the first time in her life.
Lee Joo-mi, who debuted on the regular KLPGA tour in 2015, got her first win in this tournament last year, in her 148th appearance.
However, since winning last year, he has missed the cut 13 times in 27 competitions, leaving a regret.
Lee Joo-mi said, “As this is my first title defense, I plan to play more confidently and aggressively,” and expressed her determination, “I will play hard to show off last year’s good performance.”
Yoon Eana, who returned to the KLPGA tour after 1 year and 9 months with the suspension lifted, hopes to achieve top results in the second tournament after her return. In her comeback event, the Doosan Construction Weave Championship, she finished in a tie for 34th place.
This year’s competition, now in its third year, will be held at Club 72 Country Club. The 1st and 2nd tournaments were held at the Ferrum Club (par 72) in Yeoju, Gyeonggi-do. 안전 슬롯사이트
