Medihill, Hankook Ilbo Championship 29 under par 259
KLPGA Tour minimal hits set by Kim Ha -neul in 2013
“30 under pars failed, left for other players”
After discussions on sponsors such as CJ, LPGA Tour Challenge
(Sports Seoul | Reporter Kang Kang -hoon) ‘New Record’. In the first tournament, which was renovated as a stop, the best record of all time broke out. ‘Little Park Se -ri’ Hong Jung -min (23, CJ), who has returned to overcoming panic disorders and autonomic nervous system abnormalities, embraced the second trophy in the season at the top of Montber.
Hong Jung -min won the Korean Women’s Professional Golf (KLPGA) Tour Medihill and the Hankook Ilbo Championship (1 billion won) held at the Fall and Winter Courses (par 72, 6544 yards) on the 17th in Pocheon Montberry Country Club, Gyeonggi -do.
It was the first time in the KLPGA Tour that I wrote 29 under par at the 72 -hole Stroke Play Competition. Now, retired Kim Ha -neul broke the minimum record of 23 under par 265 strokes at the 2013 MBN and Kim Young -ju Golf Women’s Open.
For reference, Hae -ran (2020 Jeju Samdasu Masters) and Lee Jung -min (KLPGA Championship) challenged Kim Ha -neul’s record, but had to be satisfied with Thai.
Hong Jung -min, who set up a record, expressed his willingness to challenge the record, saying, “The record is broken.” After winning the minimum record of all time, I wanted to write a record of 30 under par, but unfortunately failed with one shot.
In fact, Hong Jung -min caught only 31 birdies in this competition. I made a view in the final round 5 and 17 holes, and if I had a wave save, it was a ‘flawless play’ that could achieve 30 under par.
“I am very sick last year, so I am satisfied with the competition this year,” he said. He wanted a free round, but after writing the view in the 5th hole, he said, “When I returned to the tour and won one, I wanted to win one more win. I will add one win faster than I thought.
Leading the desire to win and doing the best of every shot led to a new record. In fact, Hong Jung -min said, “I couldn’t sleep well because of the tension. I felt nervous even though I had a room in the batting car (6 strokes), and I thought it was my problem. I thought it would show all the shots I had rather than the record.
Hong Jung -min, who expressed his impression of winning with a calm expression, won the third win with the championship. In 2022, he reported his first regular tour at the Doosan Match Play Championship, and he received the title ‘Major Queen’ in May this year for winning the KLPGA Championship. He is nicknamed ‘strong players’ and ‘strong heart’, and ‘pioneer’ is similar to ‘pioneer’ Park Se -ri.
He has also challenged the American Women’s Professional Golf (LPGA) tour and dreams of overseas expansion by knocking on the European Women’s Professional Golf Tour. He said, “We are always dreaming of overseas expansion,” he said.
Hong Jung -min, who won the prize ranking (about 89.92 million won) with the winning championship, jumped to the second place in the target point ranking and joined the title competition. zzang@sportsseoul.com
