Kyung-hoon Lee participating in the PGA Tour CJ Cup Byron Nelson.

Lee Gyeong-hoon (33, CJ) will challenge for the top again with confidence in the ‘Promised Land’ where he won twice previously.

Kyung-Hoon Lee will participate in the PGA Tour CJ Cup Byron Nelson (total prize money: $9.5 million) held at TPC Craig Ranch (par 71) in Dallas, Texas, from the 2nd to the 5th.

The CJ Cup Byron Nelson is a tournament commemorating the ‘golf legend’ Byron Nelson (USA) and boasts an 80-year history. Starting this year, the name changed after signing a 10-year sponsorship contract with CJ. 슬롯사이트

Kyung-Hoon Lee has a special connection with this competition. He earned his first win on the PGA Tour in a tournament held at the same course in 2021. The following year, he achieved two consecutive wins and became the first Korean player to successfully defend his PGA Tour title.

Kyung-Hoon Lee, ahead of the competition, said, “I always feel good and comfortable when I come to TPC Craig Ranch. And it is also a competition that gives him confidence. “I am happy every time I participate in this competition,” he said, looking forward to participating in this competition.

He continued, “The putt is especially good at TPC Craig Ranch. “Even when I stand on the tee box and hit my tee shot, I feel very stable on every hole,” he said. “The players make a lot of birdies here, so I run the game with the mindset that I want to make more birdies or eagles.” 메이저사이트

Although Kyung-Hoon Lee had a difficult time last year, he has already entered the top 10 twice this season and finished 11th at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans held earlier. Kyung-hoon Lee said, “Last season was a little difficult. “But this year, I feel like I’m getting better every week,” he said. “I think it will be a good tournament if I finish well from the tee shot to the putt this week.” The CJ Cup, which started in Jeju in 2017 and has been held in the U.S. mainland since 2020, has undergone a new change by signing a contract as the title sponsor of the competition. It became even more special for Lee Kyung-hoon, who signed a sponsorship contract with CJ. Kyung-hoon Lee said, “I always wanted to achieve good results in the CJ Cup, but starting this year, it became even more special. I think I was lucky.” “I was really happy that CJ became the title sponsor for this tournament because I always had good matches and results here,” he expressed confidence. 토토사이트 순위
