French-origin golf wear brand Castelbajac announced on the 26th that it has signed a management contract with KLPGA rising star Lee Jeong-min2.
The purpose is to strengthen sports marketing activities through athlete development. This is the second contract following Lim Jin-young, who was active in this year's KLPGA Tour. Lee Jeong-min2 is considered a formidable rookie debuting in next year's KLPGA Tour. She won first place in the high school division at last year's KLPGA-Samchully Together Dream Talent Competition, earning KLPGA associate membership. Shortly after, she ranked first in the full membership selection, obtaining KLPGA full membership status as a high school student.
This year, Lee Jeong-min2 progressed through the KLPGA Dream (2nd division) Tour and secured a full tour card for the regular tour next year. Her strengths include stable game management, precise iron shots, and strong stamina based on consistency and diligence. Castelbajac stated, "We have had a relationship supporting Lee Jeong-min2 with clothing since her high school days. We will do our best to provide clothing sponsorship and support so she can perform at her best."
