(Sports Seoul | Wonju = Jang Kang -hoon) Buddy bombing. I only finished the first round, but the cutoff standard is 1 under. Korea Women’s Professional Golf (KLPGA) Tour 2025 Aurora World Ladies Championship (1 billion won) started as a ‘Buddy Genius’.

The players who participated in the competition said, “To win, two people will have to stick.” There are not many courses that require a strategy, so there were many opinions that if you send it to the place you want, you will be looking for a birdie.

On July 31st, the first round of the Aurora World Ladies Championship, which opened at the Aurora Golf & Resort (par 72 · 6509) in Wonju, Gangwon -do, recorded 10 people with 5 under par 68.

‘Jeju Girl’ Ko Ji -won (21) and ‘2024 season rookie king’ Yoo Hyun -jo (20, Samcheon -ri) took the lead with 6 under par 66 strokes, and eight people, including Park Min -ji (27, NH Investment & Securities) Park Hye -jun (22, Doosan E & C), finished the first round with 5 under par 67 strokes.

Assuming that the average of five strokes per day is reduced, it is calculated that 20 under pars can be won only. Championship candidates such as Lee Yewon (22, Medihill) Park Ji -young (29, Korea Land Trust) also started with four or three under pars, so it is as hot as mercury hunting to pass through the cutoff.

Yoo Hyun -jo and Ko Ji -won, who started side by side, said, “Putt is key.” The par 5 hole battlefield is not long, so it is often aimed at two -on, which makes it difficult to manage mental.

Ko Ji -won said, “I was cut off in par 5 holes. It was a good result to leave my favorite wedge.” Yoo Hyun -jo, who attempted to -on most, said, “I will aim for a birdie when the chance comes in the par 5 hole.” The key is who holds more birdies in par 5 holes.

Park Min -ji, who started neatly, said, “It’s a cute and fun course. If you can see a birdie in the par 5 hole, the par 3 hole should be careful because the battlefield is long.

Park Min -ji will win the KLPGA Tour if he wins the tournament. It is greedy to be greedy as the first champion at the 10 Seungdo House House Open. He said, “I was good at the first day, so I want to do well until the end. I want to win the first winner title and 20 wins at once.” zzang@sportsseoul.com
