Per Google mush, the article above finishes with this line:
On this day, if she has any objection to the KLPGA disciplinary action, she can request her retrial within 15 days from the date of notification.
What does this mean? Retrial? The facts won't be different 15 days from now. This might be a CYA side exit for the KLPGA ... if they knock her sentence down to a year (including time served) or less, then they look like good guys (if you can believe that). Ina, get your q-series paperwork filled out, just in case.

Sure come to the LPGA where they will try to find violations if you are leading the Tournament. I remember when So Yeon was leading the Meijer Tournament her last LPGA win. Mainly because I still have the recording. On hole thirteen she hit a low shot from the left rough that went over the green into the rough. When she put her club behind the ball they did a close-up to see if the ball would move.. After she took her club away they kept the close-up on the ball for about five second to see if it moves. The bottom line it didn't move, she made a great par and went on to win.
That is not a reason for Ina not trying to come over and play. She shouldn't be expected to waste three years not following her career path.

I've actually wondered if that was the KLPGA's plan all along? By dishing out the three-year penalty, they look as tough as the KGA. When they get blow back and reduce the sentence, they seem compassionate. Don't be fooled. I read an article in the Korean press where the guy opined that "if Ina really was interested in reflecting on her mistakes, she should give back the trophy and the money she earned". Yeah, right. They prevent her from earning a living, and now they want to take the money she legitimately earned? Puhlease. By the way, in the reaction emojis from the readers, 15 liked the article, but 200 were angry and 45 sad. I'm guessing a lot of fans ain't buying this nonsense.

If Ina Yoon apply for Q-Series some rules apply and other news. Of course Ina is eligible to apply There is a limit that the first ten that apply gets in. If more than ten apply the ten plus will have to go to Stage two. If they don't apply this year they will have to start Stage One next year.
Ina Yoon says she is currently not talking about going abroad because she is deeply hurt. There's also the question of whether a player disciplined on another Tour is eligible for Q-Series . The LPGA stated that they haven't discussed it because it hasn't happened yet.
Translated: The full article is on Naver Sport

They "haven't discussed it?" I'll help Mollie out here: Discuss it. If the answer is no, it will save the player (Ina, in this case) from the time and embarrassment of applying in the first place. But hey, the last I checked, Ina is a blond, so she's got that in her favor.

I think these Korean sports articles aren't worth the virtual paper they aren't printed on. It's all suppositions. I guarantee you that guy has no evidence. And after getting completely burned by being honest before, why should Ina share her plans now? Especially when she has an appeal that might (probably won't) get her time reduced.
Plus, the LPGA ain't the only game in town. She can try Japan, LET, or one of the lesser Asian tours. If I were her, there's just one thing I would make sure: I would NEVER play the KLPGA ever again. Burn that bridge with fire, Ina!

So, I was reading an article the other day which made me even angrier at the KLPGA.
Anyone remember Bo Bae Song? For those who don't recall, she was the top player in Korea shortly before Jiyai Shin turned pro and wiped everyone else out. At that point, she went over to Japan, where she played a bunch of years.
Anyways, she returned to play an event in Korea around 2009 on a sponsor's invite. She had a rules issue during one round and felt that that the referee made the wrong ruling. So, she dropped out of the tournament. In retaliation, the KLPGA banned her from the tour for two years. It was totally the tour that made a big thing about it, Song was willing to just go on her way.
But get this: a few months later, Bo Bae won the Japan Women's Open. Then the KLPGA *rescinded her punishment*, explaining that she had brought honor to Korea by winning a Major over there and so should not be banned anymore.
WTF? You idiots try to destroy her on a whim, them take her back because she won a tournament overseas? What a bunch of nonsense.

So what the News Media said about Bo Bae Song is believable. But what they write about Ina is not, fake news yes!

The Korean media/KLPGA lap dogs contact the LPGA and try to get them to reject Yoon before they even know the issue. The LPGA is like, who are you? We'll look at it when it comes up. LOL
Imagine that the situation was reversed. Do you think the LPGA would bother trying to prevent a player whom they disciplined from playing on another tour? Don't be ridiculous. The KLPGA leadership needs to get a clue. They made their choice to try to ruin her career. She owes them nothing.

I put a little more stock in an article about actual facts rather than speculation ('no other tour will let her play there; they are stricter than the KLPGA' is pure speculation. They've been trying to make that a thing, but when they contacted the LPGA tour (assuming they did), they were met with laughable indifference). Having said that, the BB Song stuff might be untrue, too. Who knows with these hacks. Also, shouldn't there be an article or two that paints her in a remotely flattering light? Why are they so determined to destroy this woman? It's not like she murdered someone.

"There were some speculations that they would try to break through with their entry into the US, but Yuna's side said, "We will not apply for the qualifying series of the LPGA Tour, which ends on the 11th."" From this article about Yoon Ina v.daum.net/v/20221011081654926Will we ever see this woman play golf again?!

Yeah, she's saving herself for next year's Simone Cup where she can humiliate a few LPGAers, earn zero Rolex points and go back into the Witness Protection Program with Her Royal Majesty Princess Mary Superal.
"Yuna's side" ... what an oxymoron ... they're serving as the KLPGA's jailers, that's what they are. Of course, I'm looking at this through Western cultural eyes, but I don't care ... I wish an experienced pro like The Hulk or Dumbo or Sung Hung ... or even Sharon(!) would slap the s*** out of Yoona (metaphorically, of course) and scream SNAP OUT OF IT!

If she is telling the truth and she is not going to the LPGA, I wonder if she actually has any plan whatsoever? Surely, she cannot be considering taking three years off from golf? That's insane. Assuming she's not going to retire and is not expecting the KLPGA to give her a break, then the only possible third option is that she will play elsewhere. Perhaps she's thinking Epson tour next year as a way to get used to playing in the States rather than trying to instantly earn a card she might not be ready for?
Perhaps she thinks if she does not play at all the KLPGA will relent and let her come back next season? Who knows, there might be a tacit agreement between the two? It makes zero sense to even wait until next year's Q Series; she'll have to play all the levels without being in practice, a much worse situation.
If Se Ri really thinks she is the mother to these young players, this would be a perfect time for her to step in and give her some advice. TBH, I wish she would criticize the KLPGA for their stupidity, but I'd settle for her taking Ina under her wing and getting her back on track.

For the first time since voluntarily suspending her activities following the cheating accusations, Ina Yoon has posted on her Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck7M9yKPVMF It's basically another apology, but might it also indicate that she is preparing to go overseas? It certainly is interesting that she is choosing now to become active again. Stay tuned... Google translation: "Hello. It's Ina Yoon. To the many people who cared about me and supported me I apologize for the disappointment. I sincerely apologize to the KLPGA Association and the players. Once again, I sincerely apologize to the fans who care about and love Korean women's golf and will do my best to come back as a better player."
