[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyun-jun, Golf Specialist] ○…‘15 over par 87 strokes’.

This is the ‘pro golf challenge’ of Yoon Seok-min (35), a former baseball player. On the first day of the KPGA Korean Tour Bizplay-Electronic Times Open (total prize money 600 million KRW), which opened on the 2nd at Happiness Golf Course in Naju, Jeonnam (par 72, 7,125 yards), he made 1 eagle and 1 birdie but also recorded 4 bogeys, 2 double bogeys, 2 triple bogeys, and 1 quadruple bogey. He said, "It was disappointing but enjoyable," and added, "My goal for tomorrow is to score 5 over par or less."

Yoon Seok-min’s proud moment was the ‘shot eagle’ on the 11th hole (par 4, 383 yards). After a 256-yard tee shot, he holed his second shot from 125 yards. However, poor performance on the last three holes?triple bogey on the 16th hole (par 4), quadruple bogey on the 17th hole (par 5), and bogey on the 18th hole (par 4)?caused his score to balloon. He is tied for 147th place, last. The ‘Korean Express’ Park Chan-ho (48) previously participated twice in the Gunsan CC Open in April and the Yamaha Owners K Open in July, both times finishing last and being cut off.
