She participated in the "Salonpas Cup" and placed in the top 10, winning the KLPGA WEMAID Grand Prize points.
If a player who plays on the KLPGA Tour participates in a major tournament held overseas in the USLPGA or JLPGA and achieves a high ranking (within the top 10),
The rules were amended to give the same points as in major domestic tournaments. Park Hyun-kyung won the World Ladies Championship last week.
She tied for 8th place in the "Salonpas Cup" and received 38 WEMAID Grand Prize points, the same as the points given to 8th place in a major domestic tournament.
With these points, his cumulative points increased from 77 to 115, and his ranking jumped from 11th to a tie for 7th place.
This is because after the revised regulations come into effect, KLPGA players will be able to play in major overseas tournaments.
This is the first time that a player has received official points from Korea through their performance. Park Hyun-kyung said, "It was very meaningful just to have participated in a major overseas tournament as a representative of Korea, but I am also grateful for the good results.
I'm very happy that I was able to earn the grand prize points with my performance. I will continue to hone my skills on various stages and repay the support of my fans with a more mature appearance."
Meanwhile, the battle for the 2025 KLPGA WEMAID Grand Prize points is getting fiercer with each tournament. Lee Ye Won (22) participated in the NH Investment Securities Lady Tournament on the 12th.
She won the "World Championship" and took first place, followed by other distinguished players such as Bang Shin-Sil (21), Hong Jeong-Min (23), and Go Ji-Woo (23), who were separated by small points.
With Park Hyun Kyung now joining the team, the competition for rankings is expected to intensify even further.
