“Hard green, good for long hitters” Seo Yo-seop won the opening game and tried to win many wins… KPGA opener tied for lead
Korea’s Brooks Koepka Seo Yo-seop (27, DB Financial Group) started a strong start for the season.
Seo Yo-seop made 7 birdies and bogey on the first day of the Korea Professional Golf (KPGA) Korean Tour season opening DB Insurance Promi Open (total prize money of 700 million won) held at the Old Course (par 72, 7178 yards) at Ravier Bell Country Club in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do on the 13th. I changed two and wrote 5 under par 67 strokes.
Seo Yo-seop, who started with a birdie from the first hole, made few bogeys in hole 5 (par 5), but secured a stepping stone for birdies in hole 7 (par 3) and 9 (par 4), laying the foundation for a leap forward. In the second half, he continued cruising by catching a birdie on the 11th hole (par 5), and lost the opportunity to take the lead by changing 2 birdies and 1 bogey in the last three holes.온라인카지노
In the 15th hole (par 5), the second shot fell on the fringe and it was worth aiming for an eagle, but it failed, and even the birdie putt turned away from the hole and could not reduce the number of strokes. Seo Yo-seop said, “The green is hard and the height difference is large, so I focused on taking the tee shot carefully. If the green is hard, it is relatively advantageous for long hitters, so I think I will get good results if I play like today in the remaining rounds.”
Seo Yo-seop, who dreams of advancing to the American Professional Golf (PGA) Tour, is doing the Asian Tour at the same time. He has already participated in three or four tournaments this year, and participated in the opening match with a sense of real combat. He said, “Since I came from the tournament, I didn’t feel like it was the opening game. Last year I was nervous and nervous, but this year I feel like I am in the middle of the season.” “Overseas leagues have various types of courses, so you can gain experience. I am establishing my own golf while experiencing the narrow course and the perfect links course. I came to the opening game with this confidence,” he explained.
The goal this season is to use experience as an asset and challenge for multiple wins. He said, “I have won 2 wins every year, but this year, I am aiming for 3 wins.” As long as the driver accuracy is maintained, I expect to achieve good results,” he said confidently.
Including Seo Yo-seop, Go Gun-taek, Jang Hee-min, Bae Yong-joon, and Kim Seung-hyeok jointly took the lead, while Jeon Seong-hyun and other five people tied for 6th place by a stroke. The DB Insurance Promi Open predicted a fierce ranking battle from the first day, so it seems that it will be impossible to determine the direction of victory until the end.
Meanwhile, the first round of the day started 20 minutes late due to frost at dawn, and some players could not finish the round until sunset.
