"We are at the end." The KLPGA has only one more championship left. It is the last regular season tournament except for the Wymix Championship, which takes place next week.
The final round of the 2024 KLPGA Tour, "SK Telecom · SK Shields Championship 2024" (total prize money of 1 billion won, winning prize money of 250 million won), will be held at Laviebel Country Club (par 72, 6,788 yards) located in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do for three days from November 8th.
This year's event has significantly changed the way the final round is operated, adding to the beauty of the event. First of all, the number of participants has been changed to 60. Players who have secured the right to seed the 2025 regular tour will participate in this year's event. Points were also increased in the same way as in major competitions, enhancing the scenario of a reversal of the final round.
First of all, Madasom (25, Samchully), who won two games this season by lifting the trophy after an extended match at the "S-OIL Championship 2024" last week, is showing off his extraordinary momentum. If Madasom wins this competition, he can even seek the title of the joint multi-victory winner with three wins.
Yoon In-na (21, Hite Jinro), who is ranked first in the prize money rankings, points for the WeMade Grand Prize, and average at-bats, will solidify her three-time title in the 2024 season.
"I didn't expect to perform so well this season," Yoon Na-na said of the three-time champion challenge. "Even if the title ranking is overturned in the last competition, I want to finish the 2024 season by playing happily."
Park Hyun-kyung, who is ranked second in the prize money list and second in the WeMade grand prize point, has no intention of tolerating Yoon In-na's three gold medals.
Park Hyun-kyung said, "As I was conscious of the title from the second half of the year, I felt impatient and shaken greatly when I made a mistake," adding, "I want to finish the 2024 season by playing with joy rather than being greedy in the final game."
As it is the final match of the regular season, it is natural that a lot of attention will be paid to the main characters of various titles decided through this competition. While Yoon In-na is ranking first in the WeMade Grand Prize Points category with 535 points, Park Hyun-kyung, who is ranking second by a 32-point margin, and Park Ji-young, who increased her chances of winning the Grand Prize by scoring a top 10 last week, will continue to compete for the Grand Prize points until the last competition.
If Yoon Na-na fails to add points in the main competition, Park Hyun-kyung will have to finish in the top 10 and Park Ji-young at least second to leave the possibility of rising to first place.
The competition to win the top prize money must also be watched until the end. Yoon In-na ranks first in the prize money rankings, but if second-ranked Park Hyun-kyung and third-ranked Park Ji-young, who are aiming for the lead by less than 100 million won, win the title, she can also win the prize money title. If Yoon fails to add prize money, Kim Soo-ji (28), who ranks fifth in the prize money rankings, can also come from behind.
The winner of the most wins will also be decided in the final round. Park Hyun-kyung, Park Ji-young, Lee Ye-won (21) and Bae So-hyun (31) have won three games, while Noh Seung-hee (21) and Madasom who joined the ranks of the most wins last week have also entered the race. If Noh Seung-hee or Madasom wins the title, it will be a milestone in which five winners will be born for the first time in the KLPGA tour. 안전놀이터
Another factor of interest is to see if another player will be born who will surpass 1 billion won in prize money for this season. Depending on the result of this competition, three players will be added to the total prize money of over 1 billion won, which could increase to as many as seven.
