Lim Sung-jae, the Asian Games medal hopeful

Lim Sung-jae the Asian Games Medal Hopeful


Im Sung-jae showed his presence as a player who will become the mainstay of Korean men's golf early on by winning the Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year and winning the prize money as soon as he made his debut on the PGA 2nd Web Dotcom Tour currently Conferry Tour in 2018. 토토사이트링크 Even after his debut on the PGA Tour in the 2018-2019 season, he is a player who has been at the center of the Korean Brothers with steady skills.


Although he did not win in his PGA Tour debut season, he was the only rookie to have a stable performance to advance to the Tour Championship, the final round of the FedEx Cup playoffs, and became the first Asian player to win the Rookie of the Year award.


He met the momentum of growth by winning his first PGA Tour victory at the Honda Classic in March 2020, and has two career wins until the Schriners Children's Open in October the following year.


Although he failed to add a multiplier on the 2022-2023 PGA Tour, which ended at the end of last month, he participated in 30 tournaments and did well in the top 10 nine times. This is the highest number of individuals in the top 10 in a season like last season.
If it expands to within the 25th place, there are 18 tournaments, the most since its debut on the PGA Tour.


The FedEx Cup ranking, which is determined as a result of the Tour Championship, fell from second place last season to 24th this season, but the prize money was $6,487,421 about 8.6 billion won, making it the most money since the PGA Tour's debut, making it a sufficiently successful season.


In particular, Lim Sung-jae has participated in the Tour Championship for five consecutive years so far this season, strengthening his position as a top player on the PGA Tour in name and reality.


The Tour Championship is a competition in which only the top 30 players in the FedEx Cup point rankings, which converts their performance in a single season of the PGA Tour into scores, compete for bonus prize money, meaning that they showed their top skills on the PGA Tour. Lim Sung-jae held the record for the most appearances in the Korean Tour Championship.


Lim Sung-jae, who is working on the final preparation for the Asian Games after a short break after the tour championship, now has only to put down the burden.


Two years ago, he had a chance to wear the Taegeuk mark through the Tokyo Olympics, but Lim Sung-jae finished tied for 22nd at the time, failing to enter the medal table.


He has a career in overcoming fierce competition and winning the PGA Tour, dubbed the dream stage for golfers, but failed to shake off the tension different from the tour competition given by the biggest international sports event Olympics once every four years.


Im Sung-jae, who took Tokyo's experience as a medicine, is confident that it will be different this time. There can be no easy competition for a player, but it cannot be denied that competition at the Asian Games is much less than the Olympics, where a large number of world-class professional players participate.


Lim Sung-jae, currently ranked 27th in the world, is the highest among the players participating in the Asian Games. Among male players from other countries, it is difficult to find a player who is active on top tours such as the PGA Tour or the DP World Tour. Lim Sung-jae's performance at the forefront of the men's national team is expected to play a decisive role in the revival of the Asian Games gold vein of Korean golf.


South Korea was the strongest team to win four gold medals in golf at the 2006 Doha and 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games, but only one gold medal in Incheon in 2014 and the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Games left a disappointing result of no gold in 20 years. Incheon's one gold medal came from the women's individual event Park Kyul, and there is no gold medal in the men's division after the Guangzhou Games.


This year, when the door was opened to professional players, Lim Sung-jae and Kim Si-woo, who play on the PGA Tour, and Cho Woo-young and Jang Yu-bin, who won the right to play for amateur players, recently won a series of domestic professional competitions, so it is worth aiming for the team event.
