Lee Hyungjun Donates 10 Million Won for Pediatric Patient Treatment Costs

Donation to Ajou University Medical Center for Treating Child
"Will Continue Steady Donation Activities"

The Korea Professional Golfers' Association (KPGA) announced on the 5th that Lee Hyeong-jun (31, Welcome Savings Bank), the champion of last season's 'Hyundai Marine & Fire Insurance Choi Kyung-ju Invitational,' donated 10 million KRW for pediatric patient treatment to Ajou University Medical Center.

Lee Hyeong-jun said, "After the third round of last year's 'Golfzon-Doray Open,' I heard that a child was sick. Since the child was young, there were only a few hospitals where treatment was possible, but fortunately, Ajou University Hospital provided excellent care, and now the child has fully recovered." He added, "I believe it is important to donate consistently, even if the amount is small. I will continue my donation activities with the hope that the culture of giving spreads within the tour."

Lee Hyeong-jun, who debuted on the tour in 2012, has won six KPGA titles, including the 2014 'Herald KYJ Tour Championship,' 2015 'Descente Korea Munsingwear Match Play,' 2016 'Kaido Korea Tour Championship,' 2017 'NS Home Shopping Gunsan CC Jeonbuk Open,' 2019 '10th Descente Korea Munsingwear Match Play,' and 2022 'Hyundai Marine & Fire Insurance Choi Kyung-ju Invitational.' In 2018, he also received the 'Genesis Award,' the highest honor on the KPGA Korean Tour.

Last season, he participated in 19 tournaments, achieving one victory and one runner-up finish, entering the top 10 three times, and successfully making the cut in 12 events. He ranked 17th in Genesis Points (3448.91P) and 7th in the Genesis prize money ranking (435,333,783 KRW).

Meanwhile, Lee Hyeong-jun will depart for training camp in Chiang Rai, Thailand, on the 10th. His scheduled return date is February 24.
