<p>This season&#8217;s Korean women&#8217;s professional golf tournament has been all out of the ordinary. The number of tournaments is the largest in history, with 33 tournaments. The total prize money has also reached a record high, surpassing the 3 billion yen mark.</p>
<p>What makes the Korean women&#8217;s professional golf scene even more exciting is the &#8220;KLPGA Public Relations Model,&#8221; who was selected from approximately 10,000 fan votes in March of this year. The &#8220;KLPGA PR Models&#8221; were selected from approximately 10,000 fan votes in March of this year. Their role is to promote the KLPGA through calendars, New Year&#8217;s cards, and other promotional activities, but there is more to them than just good looks. Kim Myeong-woo, a sportswriter and expert on Korean golf, explains, &#8220;The girls&#8217; abilities are real.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><strong> The girls have real talent,&#8221; said Kim Myung-woo, a sports writer and expert on Korean golf. The most talked-about of them all is Park Min-ji (23), last season&#8217;s money queen. Her greatest strength is her high par-on-percentage, and she has shown an impressive performance with three wins in the last eight tournaments from May to July, and she is still ranked No. 1 in the money ranking this season.</strong></p>
<p>There are many more &#8220;PR models&#8221; who are taking the Tour by storm. Kim recommends Park Hyun-kyung (22), born in 2000, who has a reputation as a next-generation visual queen.</p>
<p><strong> Last year, she garnered a lot of attention when she finished fourth in the money ranking with her putting skills, which were the best among all players. She has a cute smile and a lot of fans. The way she goes around the hole with a large gallery in tow reminds me of Lee Bo-mee (33) at the peak of her career.<br>
</strong></p>
<p><strong> Ahn Ji-hyun (23) and Kim Jae-hee (21), both of whom belong to the major beauty company Mediheal, are also noteworthy. Kim, in particular, is a rising star called &#8220;Super Rookie&#8221; with her 170cm tall model figure and solid skills. In 2008, her first year on the tour, she suddenly won three tournaments in the second division and was crowned the money queen. This season, she is struggling in the first division, but once she gets used to it, she should be able to move up in the rankings,&#8221; said Kim.</strong></p>
<p>Other players to watch out for include Heo Da-bin (23), with her cute dimples when she smiles, and Lee Ga-young (22), ranked 6th in the money list, who boasts of her high iron accuracy.</p>
<p>Watching their brilliant play will make your golfing experience even more enjoyable.</p>
