Next Season in Japan! The Second Ahn Shin-hye” Jung Ji-yu’s beauty and charm
The day has come for the visual queen of the Korean golf world to be seen in Japan.
The women’s golf professional test was held in Japan from November 1 to 4. This year, 20 players passed with flying colors, winning a fierce competition that is said to be “more difficult than passing the entrance exam at the University of Tokyo. Among the elite who made it through the narrow gate, Ji-yu Jeong (26) stands out from the crowd.
She has a model-like figure of 173 cm, and with her well-defined eyes and nose, she is as popular as any top golfer in Korea. This time, the course setting was difficult, but with her high iron accuracy, she shot a score of 70 on the second day and quickly rose to within the passing range.
Ji-Yoo Jung is also unique in her competitive career. She started playing golf at the age of 18. She quickly rose to prominence and turned pro two years later in 2015. She has already competed on the Korean First Division Tour, so she has a good track record.
With this success, she has earned the right to compete on Japan’s second-division tour next year. Furthermore, if she can pass the qualifying round at the end of the year, she will also qualify for the first division tour. But why did she decide to join the Japan Tour at the age of 26?
Ji-Yoo Chung’s main competition in Korea is mainly the second division tour. Last year, after a long absence, she made her first appearance on the first division tour. Last year, when she played on the first division tour for the first time in a while, she said at the post-match press conference, “I am under pressure from not being able to meet the expectations of the people around me. In such a situation, she may be trying to find a way to make a breakthrough in Japan.
In her first attempt in Japan, Jung Ji-yu passed the professional test with flying colors. The beautiful golfer, who is often called “the second Anne Shin-hye,” may dominate the Japan Tour next season.
