[Asia Economy Reporter Noo Rae] ○…"Back-to-back Olympic wins and a total of 21 victories."

The New Year's goal of 'Golf Empress' Park In-bee (33, KB Financial Group). On the 16th, at an untact media day organized by her equipment sponsor Dunlop Sports Korea, she expressed her eagerness for a consecutive win, saying, "I hope the Tokyo Olympics in Japan will be held as the COVID-19 situation improves," and "I will prepare hard assuming the tournament takes place." She set a new milestone of a 'career golden slam' by winning the gold medal at the August 2016 Rio Olympics in Brazil.

Park In-bee, who said, "Because of the cold weather, I haven't been able to play rounds on the course or practice outdoors much," shared her recent status: "I am practicing putting, physical training, and swing practice indoors," adding, "I have not made major changes to my swing." In February last year, she achieved her 20th career win by winning the Australian Women's Open on the LPGA Tour. With three additional runner-up finishes, she ranked 3rd in the prize money rankings ($1,377,799). She is 2nd in Player of the Year points (112 points) and 3rd in scoring average (70.07 strokes).

"Honestly, before the season started, I was very worried about my performance," Park In-bee said, "but my shot feel was very good." She explained, "Moreover, with many tournaments canceled, the physical burden was reduced." She is focusing on putting practice, which was somewhat disappointing. "This year, I am practicing to make my putting stroke more consistent," she introduced. She continued, "I want to keep achieving good results," and confidently stated, "My goal is my 21st tour victory."
