Lee Ye-won, who won both KLPGA Tour titles in Jeju, will take the top spot in the grand prize money rankings in Gangwon Province.
Lee Ye-won will participate in the KLPGA Tour High1 Resort Women's Open (total prize money of 800 million won) at High1 Country Club (par 72) in Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon-do, for four days from the 17th.
If Lee Ye-won, who topped the prize money list by winning the Doosan Engineering & Construction Weave Championship on the 13th, wins the High1 Resort Women's Open, she will beat Park Ji-young to become the No. 1 target points.
Currently, Park Ji-young, the No. 1 Grand Prize point, does not participate in the competition, so Lee Ye-won's No. 1 Grand Prize point depends on Lee Ye-won.
Lee Ye-won, who said, "I want to receive the grand prize" after winning her first victory at the Lotte Rent-A-Car Women's Open in April, did not hide her desire for the grand prize, saying, "The goal is the grand prize."
Unlike the prize money king, which is determined by a tournament with a large prize money, the KLPGA Tour Grand Prize cannot receive points if it is not in the top 10, it can only be obtained by maintaining steady performance throughout the season.
Lee Ye-won, who puts up steady performance rather than one shot, has already been predicted as the most likely candidate for the grand prize this year.
Lee Ye-won was evaluated as unique in her ability to produce steady results by ranking fourth in the grand prize points even though she never won the championship last year.
Lee Ye-won has no significant weakness, as the No. 1 comprehensive ability index, which scores by adding up performance such as tee shots, approach shots, short games, and putting, says.
Lee Ye-won, who had been somewhat clumsy in managing the game due to his short tour career, is likely to become the strongest player on the KLPGA Tour as he has added relaxation and experience as he enters the middle of his second year.
If Lee Ye-won reaches the top of the High1 Resort Women's Open, she will win for two consecutive weeks and become the No. 1 player in the multiple wins category.
It will also pave the way to take the lead in the average at-bats category, which ranks second after Park Ji-young. 스포츠토토
Lee Ye-won said, "I have no problem with my physical strength, and my shot sense has improved with the victory in the last tournament," adding, "I will focus until the last minute as I have done so far to win the grand prize."
Im Jin-hee, who won two games in the same season as Lee Ye-won, will also compete for three wins in the season.
Lim Jin-hee, who has been on the rise to first and fourth place in the last two competitions, can win the High1 Resort Women's Open and win the first place in the grand prize.
Park Min-ji, who lost face after being eliminated from the cut at Doosan Engineering & Construction's Weve Championship, will also try to win three games of the season.
Last year's championship champion Han Jin-sun will start her first title defense.
Han Jin-sun said, "I've been running dreaming of defending the title since the start of this season. "I'm really looking forward to it," he said. "The shots were good in both of the past two tournaments." "If you just follow the putting, you will get good results," he said.
The participation of three LPGA Tour players, Ji Eun-hee, Ryu So-yeon, and Korean-American Daniel Kang (USA), is considered a variable.
Ryu has won the tournament twice in 2009 and 2015.
Ryu So-yeon vowed to "play well for domestic fans with active play."
