It starts at par 72).

As it was the last major tournament of the season, Min-Byeol Kim threw down the challenge while KLPGA Tour star players such as Min-Ji Park and Ye-Won Lee were in attendance. Kim Min-byeol, who is ranked first in Rookie Award points, has not yet won the championship, unlike his Rookie Award competitors Hwang Yu-min and Bang Shin-sil. He will certainly be motivated to win his first sponsored competition.

Lee Da-yeon (26, Mediheal) and Park Ji-young (27, Korea Land Trust), both from Wonju, who have already won major titles this season, also expressed their candidacy. In particular, Park Ji-young, who is second in the prize money and grand prize points rankings, is aiming to regain her first place. Lee Da-yeon, who is ranked 3rd in the prize money rankings, has performed particularly well in major tournaments this season and is expected to perform well in this tournament.

Han Jin-seon (26, Kakao VX) from Sokcho is aiming for her first major queen position. After winning the High1 Resort Women’s Open for the second time in a row, she coveted major tournaments, especially this one, and is determined to achieve her final goal of the season. Lim Hee-jeong (23, Doosan Construction) from Taebaek and Hwang Jeong-mi (24, Pepper Savings Bank) from Wonju will challenge for their first win of the season.
