(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kim Dong-chan = In-jin Jeon, 27, is on the verge of breaking down last year’s sluggishness by running at the top in the opening game of the 2021 season of the American Women’s Professional Golf (LPGA) Tour.
Jeon Inji tied for third place with 133 strokes at 9 under par until the second round of the LPGA Tour Diamond Resort Champions Tournament ($1.2 million in prize money) held in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, USA on the 23rd (Korean time).
In the second round, only six birdies were caught without a bogie, and in the first round the previous day, the sixth hole (par 4) triple bogie became “a tee on the ball,” but also recorded 6 buddies.
After conquering major tournaments such as the US Women’s Open in 2015 and the Evian Championship in 2016, Jeon In-in, who quickly became a top LPGA tour leader, has been unable to establish a championship after winning the third win at the KEB Hana Bank Championship held in Korea in October 2018.
In 2019 and 2020, Jeon Inji’s best performance last year was a tie for 7th at the major tournaments in August, the AIG Women’s Open and the Scottish Open.
In an interview after finishing the second round, Jeon-in said, “In fact, today’s shot wasn’t that good, but I tried to keep my patience,” and “I was able to finish the game without seeing it today.”
He said, “I didn’t have a lot of buddy opportunities in the first nine holes, and I missed a few putts, but I tried to continue to believe in my performance.”
“In fact, golf isn’t a sport that gives good results just because a shot goes well,” said Jeon Inchi. “When I win the major, because the shot wasn’t going well for four days, I was faithful to every moment and tried to prepare for the next.”
Jeon In-I, who recorded 2 buddies in the first half and 4 in the second half, said, “I wanted to stay in the United States without going to Korea because I had good grades (5 under par) in the final round of last December of last year.” I don’t like it, but I practiced a lot on the putting green and it seems that it leads to good results.”
