Kim Min-byeol recorded a 4-over par 76 in the final round of the KLPGA Tour’s PLK Pacific Rings Korea Championship (total prize money of 700 million won) held at the Twin Doves Golf Club (par 72) in Binh Duong Province, Vietnam on the 18th. After recording 3 under par until the 2nd round the previous day, he tied for 31st with a final total of 1 over par 217, finishing his first tournament after turning pro. 안전놀이터

Kim Min-byeol, who won first place in the KLPGA tour regular member selection match held at Gunsan Golf Course in Jeollabuk-do last October and obtained regular membership qualification, took first place in the KLPGA Tour seed ranking final held at Muan Country Club in Jeollanam-do last month, heralding a blast this season. Although he performed poorly in his first tournament, he is expected to achieve good results as he adapts to the professional stage little by little.

Meanwhile, Lim Hee-jeong (22, Korea Land Trust) from Taebaek, who participated in the tournament together, was sluggish with a tie for 51st place with a 5-over par. The glory of the championship went to Lee Jung-min, who recorded a final total of 9 under par.
