Park Hyun-kyung, Yoon Ina, and Lee Ye-won, who are ranked 1st to 3rd in the prize money rankings of this year's Korea Ladies Professional Golf (KLPGA) Tour, will compete to be the first to reach the 1 billion won mark in accumulated prize money for the season by participating in the Hanwha Classic, which starts on the 22nd at the Jade Palace Golf Club (par 72) in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do. The total prize money for the Hanwha Classic, the third major tournament of the season, is 1.7 billion won, and the winner's prize money is 306 million won. Both the total prize money and the winner's prize money are the highest among the 31 tournaments of the KLPGA Tour this year. The runner-up prize money is 187 million won, which is the level of the prize money for the winner of most tournaments. Park Hyun-kyung, Yoon Ina, and Lee Ye-won all have a total prize money of over 700 million won for the season, and the winner of this tournament will receive over 1 billion won in prize money.

Park Hyun-kyung is in first place this season for most wins (3 wins), target points (370 points), and prize money (KRW 928,551,799). She has shown stable performance by competing in 16 competitions this season and making the top 10 9 times, including 3 wins. If Park Hyun-kyung finishes in the top 4 in this competition, she will receive over KRW 1 billion in season prize money. The prize money for 4th place is KRW 85 million. Park Hyun-kyung will tee off at 12:14 PM on the 22nd at the 1st hole along with defending champion Kim Su-ji and Bae So-hyun, winner of The Heaven Masters that ended on the 18th.

If Park Hyun-kyung wins this tournament, she will be able to set the stage for surpassing the highest single-season prize money (KRW 1,521,374,313) set by Park Min-ji in 2021. There are 11 more tournaments left after the Hana Classic.

Yoon Ina

Yoon Eana, who returned to the tour in April after 21 months due to a penalty for 'misplay', won her first championship since her return at the Jeju Samdasoo Masters, which ended on the 4th. She has shown her consistent skills by making it to the top 10 nine times, including three second-place finishes and one third-place finish. Yoon Eana, who ranks first in season average strokes (69.766), has made it to the top five in all four recent competitions. She ranks second in both season prize money (761.43 million won) and target points (344 points). Yoon Eana will play with Park Min-ji and Hara Erika (Japan) in the first and second rounds of this tournament. Hara is a long hitter representing the Japan LPGA Tour, having won five times in total on the Japanese stage.

Lee Ye-won

Lee Ye-won, who is tied with Park Hyun-kyung for most wins and third in prize money (723,145,038 won), is also aiming to surpass 1 billion won in season prize money and take first place in the prize money rankings. Lee Ye-won is determined to wash away the regret of finishing second in this tournament last year. Lee Ye-won will play with Park Ji-young, who is fourth in prize money rankings, and Noh Seung-hee, who is fifth,

in the first and second rounds. Lee Hyo-song (16) will make her KLPGA Tour professional debut through the Hanwha Classic. Lee Hyo-song participated in the JLPGA Tour major tournament, the World Ladies Championship Salonpas Cup, as an amateur player in May, becoming the youngest winner in JLPGA Tour history (15 years and 176 days). Lee Hyo-song had previously participated in KLPGA Tour tournaments as an amateur invitation player, but this is her debut tournament after turning pro last month. Lee Hyo-song said, “I don’t have much desire for prize money yet. “Because this is my debut, I want to learn a lot from my seniors,” he said. Another point of interest is whether there will be a multiple winner in the tournament for the first time in 27 years. The only multiple winner of this tournament is Se-ri Pak (retired). Se-ri Pak won the tournament three times in a row from 1995 to 1997, when it was held under the name of the Hanwha Cup Seoul Women’s Open.
