Lee Ye-won, who started the final round by five strokes, only reduced one stroke in the first half, allowing Moon Jung-min, who showed off his sharp iron shot, to co-lead 12-under par. However, while Moon Jung-min slowed down with a bogey on the 16th hole (par 3), he made a birdie putt of about 6.5m at the 15th hole (par 4), the second most difficult hole, and ran to 13 under par. Hong Jung-min chased by one stroke with a birdie on the 17th hole (par 5), but Lee Ye-won scored a 4.5-meter birdie putt on the 18th hole (par 4).
Lee Yewon said, `I'm happy to win the second consecutive game I wanted. It was my favorite course, so I was able to trust myself and play, and that allowed me to win wire-to-wire"My goal this year is to win four or five wins and become the king of the most wins."
