KLPGA: 2023 Doosan E&C We'Ve Championship

Quotes from various articles via garbled Google Translate...

After the match, Lee Ye-won said, "My goal was to add one more win in the second half, and I'm happy to have won the second win in Jeju Island, where I have good memories." (NOTE: She's exceeded her own expectations.)

“I thought it was a mental problem that I didn’t win last year, and I gained confidence by making up for it during winter training,” he said, expressing his motivation, saying, “I’m happy to have won a lot, and now I want to win a major tournament.” Having risen to second place in the grand prize following Park Ji-young, he promised her steady performance, saying, “I will aim for her original goal, the grand prize, rather than the prize money king.”

Lee Ye-won said, "I am happy to record my second win. I felt good from the morning. I thought I would calmly cut down because the shot felt good. Thanks to one overtime loss, I gained confidence. I want to win the KB Financial Star Championship as well."

Side Note: As a sponsors invite as an am and as a pro, Yewon has never missed a cut at the KB* Championship.

Lee Ye-won was delighted, saying, "After losing the first overtime, I promised myself that I would win again if I had a chance, but I took revenge sooner than I thought."

Winning putt...“I made a bold stroke with the thought of never making short putts and passing the hole, but it went in like a lie.”

She said, “I heard that the only way to develop distance and accuracy at the same time is through bean swing (swing without a ball) training."
(The quote continues saying she does this 150 times a day to varying degrees of difficulty.)

Lee Ye-won said, “I am happy to be the first champion of the Doosan We’ve Championship. Also, it feels good to record his first win and many wins in his favorite Jeju Island. I struck boldly, thinking that I would lose if I didn’t make a birdie in overtime. Fortunately, I rode the line well and got in,” she laughed. “The next goal is to win a major tournament. I will try to do well in the remaining tournaments while maintaining my current sense.”

Maybe she will win a major soon. Maybe her name near the top of the leaderboard will put a small drop of fear into the minds of competitors.
