On the 30th (Korean time), at Warwick Hills Golf Club (par 72, 7,101 yards) in Grand Blanc, Michigan, USA, the final day of the Champions Tour Ally Challenge (total prize money $2 million), he surged with a 6-under-par round to finish tied for 4th place (14-under-par 202 strokes). This is his second-best performance following a tie for 3rd place at the KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship last May. He recorded 8 birdies and 2 bogeys. He powered his game with a fairway hit rate of 92.86% and a greens in regulation rate of 94.44%.



The Champions Tour is a tournament for players aged 50 and above. Joe Durant (USA) shot 4-under-par to complete a one-stroke come-from-behind victory (17-under-par 199 strokes). This is his 4th win on the Champions Tour, with a winner’s prize of $300,000 (350 million KRW). He is also a 4-time winner on the PGA Tour. "Making a slight change in putting paid off," he exclaimed. Bernhard Langer (Germany) finished 2nd (16-under-par 200 strokes), and Steven Alker (New Zealand) was 3rd (15-under-par 201 strokes).
