[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○…The third day of the Korea Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) Tour National Shelter High1 Resort Women's Open (total prize money 800 million won) was postponed due to rain.


The third round held on the 21st at High1 Golf Course in Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon Province (par 72, 6,511 yards) was suspended at 10:48 a.m. as heavy rain caused water to accumulate on the greens and bunkers, making normal play difficult. The tournament organizing committee decided to postpone the third round to the 22nd as the water on the course did not drain due to continuous rain. The players will resume the remaining play of the third round from 6:50 a.m. on the 22nd and play the final round at noon.



Lee Ga-young (22, NH Investment & Securities), who started as the leader with a 4-stroke lead, lost one stroke after making one birdie and two bogeys in four holes. She is the leader by 2 strokes (9 under par). Six-time champion Park Min-ji (23, NH Investment & Securities) reduced two strokes over six holes to leap into a tie for second place (7 under par). Jeju Samdasoo champion Oh Ji-hyun (25, KB Financial Group) is also in this group. 2019 champion Lim Hee-jeong (Korea Land & Trust) is tied for fourth place (6 under par), and Cho Ah-yeon (Dongbu Construction, both 21) is tied for eighth place (5 under par).
