Jiyoung Park won the KLPGA Tour this season opener held in December of last year at the Hana Financial Group Singapore Women’s Open, followed by a runner-up at the Lotte Rent-A-Car Women’s Open, the opening game in Korea held earlier this month.

Park Hyeon-gyeong is also considered a candidate who can win the championship at any time, as she has been listed in the top 10 three times in the four competitions she has participated in this season.

Kim Min-byeol, who is receiving attention as a ‘super rookie’ by placing third in the Mediheal and Hankook Ilbo championships, is also evaluated as a candidate for the championship. 안전놀이터
