On the 11th, at the Aramir Golf Club in Changwon, Gyeongnam (Par 71, 7,206 yards), the final day of the KPGA Korean Tour Woosung Construction Aramir CC Busan Gyeongnam Open (total prize money 500 million KRW), he shot 4-under par to secure a 2-stroke victory (18-under par 266). This marks his 9th career win, his first since the Shinhan Donghae Open in September 2018, ending a 2 year and 10 month drought. The winner's prize money is 100 million KRW. His total career earnings have increased to 3.85479 billion KRW, ranking first in this category.
Park Sang-hyun started tied for the lead by one stroke and made five birdies (one bogey). He made birdies on the 3rd and 8th holes to reduce two strokes in the front nine, and added birdies on the 11th and 14th holes (both par 4) in the back nine, distancing himself from his competitors. Although he made his only bogey on the 17th hole (par 4), he celebrated his victory with a birdie on the final 18th hole (par 5). "I'm very happy to win after such a long time," he said, "I will show even better performance in the second half of the year," he cheered.
