Moon Jeong-min (22), who has been highly anticipated by fans since her debut due to the long driving distances she can hit from her 171cm height, participated in the KLPGA (
On the 22nd, at the Seowon Valley in Paju, Gyeonggi-do, she won her first victory on the regular tour of the Korea Ladies Professional Golf Association.
At the KLPGA Tour "DAEBO hausD Open" held at CC, she recorded a total of 9 under par and won her first tournament in her 63rd tournament.
Moon Jeong-min won the championship prize of 180 million won (about 19 million yen). Moon Jeong-min, who joined the club in 2021, did not perform well the following year and will not be participating in the second division tour in 2023.
She dropped out of the Dream Tour, but won two tournaments there and was the money leader, and returned to the KLPGA Tour ahead of this season.
Moon Jung-min has failed to qualify in the last four tournaments, but this one was different.
She started the day tied for fourth place behind Under, but improved by two strokes in the second round to move into a tie for the lead with Ji Han-sol.
In an interview after the second round, he said, "This season, the opening round in Japan was also like this.
I was doing well in the first round, but I got nervous on the final day and collapsed. I'm going to be less nervous than I was then and just do what I have to do," vowed Moon Jeong-min, who had a good feel for shots on the final day and made a great play off the seventh hole.
He got a birdie on the 9th hole and started to improve, and by the 14th hole he had a 2-stroke lead over the second place player. His second shot missed the green on the 18th hole, but he was able to save par.
He was successful and won the championship. However, although he was congratulated by his teammates, the gallery was quiet, except for a few fans. Moon Jeongmin himself was calm.
Moon Jeong-min said, "Recently, my shots have not been good and my results have been bad, so I didn't expect to win. Yoon In-na, Bang Shin-sil, Hwang You-min and other players who can hit the ball farther are also good.
Seeing everyone else win, I really wanted to win as well. I want to win one more time before the season ends."
