Tawatanakit achieved two career wins in his home country

Kim Se-young (31, Mediheal) and Choi Hye-jin (25, Lotte) made a good start to the season's first competition in Asia.
Kim Se-young and Choi Hye-jin tied for third in the Honda Thailand (total prize money of $1.7 million), the first Asian swing competition of the 2024 LPGA Tour, which ended at the Siam CC Old Course (par 72) in Chonburi, Thailand on the 25th.

Kim Se-young had eight birdies and one bogey to score 7-under 65, and Choi Hye-jin had an eagle and seven birdies, but Kim Se-young and Choi Hye-jin, who recorded a total of 18-under 270 with a bogey and a double bogey, finished the tournament tied for third.  토토사이트 순위

Kim, who tied for sixth in the third round, garnered birdies at the first three holes in a row to recover momentum. However, it was regrettable that she made bogey at the fourth hole (par 3). Since then, she has birdies at consecutive holes in the seventh and eighth holes, and jumped up three notches by reducing three pars in the second half, but she was in a gap with Patty Tawatanakit (Thailand, 21-under 267), who won the title at home turf. Ranked second on the list was Albany Valenzuela (Switzerland, 20-under 268).

Kim Sei-young, the "witch of red pants" who has 12 LPGA wins, is famous for her come-from-behind victory. She came in first in the second round but has yet to announce her victory since the Pelicans Championship in November 2020. She also ranked third in the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship in September.

He took on the top challenge for the first time in three years and three months and showed a scary rise on the day, but he swallowed the disappointment by failing to win the upset.

Choi Hye-jin, who has yet to win the title after debuting in the LPGA, lacked concentration in the early part of the first half. She garnered birdies at the first hole (par 5), but slipped one after another at the second and third holes (par 4). Choi Hye-jin, who was shaken by bogey at the second hole, bowed her head with a double bogey at the third hole.
Afterwards, she birdied the sixth hole (par 4) and garnered an eagle in the second half, showing off her powerful performance by reducing as many as seven pars at nine holes. She also left a highlight film with a fantastic eagle. Choi Hye-jin, who sent her tee shot near the green, scored an eagle with a sensational chip shot. However, the gap between the lead and the pars was too wide to make up for the mistake in the first half.

Kim Hyo-joo (29) also displayed outstanding performance. Although bogey at Hole 2 (par 4) was painful, Yoo reduced five pars on the day alone and tied for fifth with 17-under 271. Yoo Hae-ran (23) of Daol Financial Group made a huge impact with six birdies in the first half alone, and successfully advanced to the top 10 at 15-under 273 by tying for ninth.

It was Tawatanakit who came to the top. Having won the ANA Inspiration (currently the Chevron Championship) for the first time in 2021, Tawatanakit emerged as the rookie of the year award, but failed to produce any results afterwards.
She gained momentum again through the Asian tournament. Having recently won the wire-to-wire title from round 1 to round 4 at the Aramco Saudi Ladies International held in Saudi Arabia, she also gained momentum in the LPGA tour and gave home fans an emotional victory.

She also had a dramatic victory. Tied for the lead with Venezuela at the 18th hole (par 5), she displayed high concentration and birdie at the last hole. She turned a blind eye to the green with her second shot, but put it right next to the hole with a perfect approach, and successfully made her birdie putt, before shedding tears.
