'KLPGA's representative box office competition' opens on the 10th
Marking its 16th anniversary this year, the tournament is one of the KLPGA Tour's representative box office competitions, which is visited by as many as 30,000 cloud galleries every year thanks to the timing of the event in May, which is suitable for outdoor activities, and the accessibility of Suwon CC, a representative downtown golf course. Last year, more than 20,000 galleries visited the final round alone, and the cumulative total of 35,928 people for three days broke the record for the most galleries ever in the tournament.
This year, as Im Jin-hee, who won the come-from-behind victory last year, advanced to the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour and the defending champion position became vacant, many candidates who wanted to take the throne threw their hat in the ring.
The most notable player is Park Min-ji, who is trying to win the top prize money in a sponsor competition along with three wins in the competition. Currently, Park has narrowed the gap with No. 1 Jang Ha-na (5.77 billion won) to 18.83 million won with her overall prize money, and if she ranks eighth or higher in the main competition, she can rise to No. 1 in overall prize money. As she has achieved two consecutive wins in 2021 and 2022, and has been a top 10 player in the main competition last year, attention is focusing on whether she will achieve the milestone.
In addition, Park Ji-young, who won last week and became the first multi-winner of the season, Kim Jae-hee, Lee Ye-won, Hwang Yoo-min, Choi Eun-woo, Lee Jung-min, and NH Investment & Securities players Lee Ga-young, Jung Yoon-ji and Kim Hye-seung will compete for the title.
Meanwhile, organizers have made great efforts to improve the gallery viewing environment in consideration of the cloud gallery visiting the venue.
First of all, Gallery Plaza, which is about 530 pyeong (1750㎡), has been created as a complex cultural space. Along with a rest area, Gallery Plaza will have a food truck consisting of popular menus and a food and beverage space featuring popular brands such as Mokwoochon Old Age, Playground Brewery, and The Venti. Starting this year, a mobile ordering system for gallery convenience will be introduced so that visitors can enjoy food and beverage menus more conveniently.
At the promotional booth for NH Investment & Securities Co., the host company, visitors can enjoy various experiences and events. In the second round, a fan signing event for players from NH Investment & Securities Co. (Park Min-ji, Lee Ga-young, and Jung Yoon-ji) will be held, and participants can also participate in the giveaway event in every round. In addition, the gallery has created an experiential event that anyone can easily participate in, allowing visitors to enjoy golf outside of watching.
Official goods for the event have been upgraded along with various concepts. Bucket hats, VIP umbrellas, and golf gloves with the signature of NH Investment & Securities players have been improved with a new design, and functional easy-to-use pouch that can be easily used in golf courses and ball markers with the logo of the event have been added.
In particular, this year, tickets to the lounge installed on the green of Hole 18 will be sold only on Fridays and Saturdays. For a daily admission fee of 50,000 won, you can get catering and beverage services at Green Lounge 18, where you can watch the competition and souvenirs, as well as watch the reversal drama of the players. Lounge tickets can be purchased at Ticket 24.메이저사이트
Information on the competition can be found on the competition's official website. You can check the outline of the competition, past winners, participants, and course information, and receive information that helps the actual gallery, such as ticket purchase, viewing, and event information.
NH Investment & Securities, which is as active in ESG management as gallery services, conducts various ESG programs every year, focusing on two keywords: "eco-friendly" and "social contribution."
In the first hole of the competition course, an N2 (Entu) zone will be set up, and 500,000 won will be accumulated from the host company whenever the tee shot is settled. N2 (Entu) is a familiar nickname called by NH Investment & Securities among young investors, and is a campaign name to actively reflect this phenomenon in its branding. The funds raised through the event will be used to create a deodorant forest in Anseong Farmland to support livestock environment improvement projects.
