In the final fourth round of the Doosan Engineering & Construction Weave Championship (total prize money of 1.2 billion won) held at Dongnae Benest Golf Club (par 72) in Geumjeong-gu, Busan on the 6th, Lee Ye-won recorded a two-under 70 with one eagle, three birdies and three bogeys, winning the final total with 12-under 276.
In the last hole of the same group, he failed to make an eagle approach and beat Hong Jung-min (23), who recorded the final 11-under 277, by one stroke.
Lee Ye-won, who reported his first win of the season with a thrilling come-from-behind victory, achieved a career-high seven wins by winning again two years after winning the tournament's first title in 2023. It has been 10 months since Sh Suhyup Bank won the MBN Women's Open in June last year.
Lee Ye-won, who recorded three wins for two consecutive years in 2023 and 2024, predicted an unchanged performance this year by winning the opening game in Korea.

In the final 18th hole, Hong Jung-min first birdied the approach third shot next to the hole. But Yewon Lee, who has a strong heart, was not intimidated. He cheered with the gallery as he made a bold 7.8m eagle putt.
After the game, Lee Ye-won said, "The last hole eagle in the championship group is my first" and added, "It's an unforgettable victory." I never imagined that I would win with an eagle. I was surprised,' he said. He said he gained 3kg from grain powder in two months of winter training, and was satisfied that he could use 70 percent of the power he used last year to achieve a similar distance. "I want to win the most wins this year with more than four wins. If I win a lot, I think the prize money king and the grand prize will follow."
