Park Seong-hyeon (29), who participated in the domestic competition for the first time in a year, showed satisfaction after finishing the first match with an even par.
Park Seong-hyun hit an even-par 72 by tying two birdies and two bogeys in the first round of the Hite Jinro Championship (total prize of 1.2 billion won) at the Blue Heron Golf Club (par 72) in Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do on the 6th. hit
Park Seong-hyeon, who finished tied for 13th, three shots behind the joint leading group at 3-under par 69, said he was satisfied, saying, “It’s the best first day of the tournament this year.”
He participated in the KLPGA Tour event for the first time in a year after this tournament last year.
Park Seong-hyun said, “There was a first round where the score was better than today, but the condition and shot sense were good.
Park Seong-hyun showed off his accurate shot, missing the green only twice that day.
However, it was a pity that I wrote down two bogeys by mistake on the tee shot.
Park Seong-hyun said, “There are still three days left, so it’s too early to mention today’s score.” It is more important not to make mistakes than to make many buddies. You must never be greedy.”
Park Seong-hyeon, who was driving a cheering squad of about 2,000 people that day, said, “I was trembling in the first hall. But even that trembling was good.” He said, “There were times when I missed playing in the United States. He gets a lot of energy and it’s good to go,” he said with a broad smile.
