The Korea Professional Golf Association (KPGA) Korean Tour will hold a 36-hole tournament for the first time in 34 years. We were caught up in the rain, which was heavy enough to issue a heavy rain warning.

KPGA decided to cancel the second round of the Biz Play/Electronic Newspaper Open (total prize money of 700 million won) held at Cosmos Rings (par 72, 7,407 yards) in Yeongam, Jeollanam-do on the 16th and reduce it to 36 holes. It has been 34 years since the Pocari Sweat Open in 1989 that the Korean Tour was held with 36 holes. This is the third time, including the 1983 Busan Open.

The course was closed the previous day due to heavy rain, so no one could tee off. On this day, the match was held as usual at 7 a.m., but the rain became heavier around 11 a.m. and the game was called off. We waited for about two hours, but due to rain accompanied by lightning, it was not possible to resume, and at 1:30 PM, the final decision was made to suspend the competition. Only 3 out of 133 players completed the second round, and 66 did not even tee off.먹튀검증

Rain is also forecast on the 17th. The competition organizing committee is planning to hold the competition one more day, with the 18th as a preliminary day. If the tournament continues until the 18th, it will be the third tournament to end on Monday in nine years, following the 2014 Korea Open and the Herald KYJ Tour Championship in the same year. At the time, the Korean Open had 72 holes, and the Herald KYJ Tour Championship was held until Monday and was held at 54 holes.

As the tournament is reduced to 36 holes, only 75% of the total prize money will be paid to the players. However, Genesis points are awarded as is. If the tournament ends without any player completing 18 holes, 25% of the total prize money will be distributed equally.

As the bad weather continued, some players left the competition site. Lee Seung-taek, who was the co-leader in the first round, withdrew due to high fever and chills, and Kim Bio, Park Sang-hyun, and Hangzhou Asian Games national team member Cho Woo-young also returned home.
