Translated from a Korean news outlet:
The Hite Jinro Championship tees off from September 25 to 28 at Blue Heron Country Club (par 72) in Yeoju, Gyeonggi Province. A total prize purse of 1.5 billion KRW is at stake, as 108 players from both domestic and international tours vie for the coveted trophy.
The championship offers an abundance of intriguing focal points. Foremost among them is the return of Yoon Ina, currently playing as a rookie on the LPGA Tour, who will compete out of loyalty to her former sponsor. Despite claiming both the prize money leader and player of the year titles last season before heading overseas, Yoon Ina's LPGA debut has been challenging. Without a single top-10 finish, she currently ranks 80th in points and faces uncertainty over securing her full playing status for next season. The demanding schedule, which sees her flying out immediately after this tournament, only adds pressure, but a strong showing here could spark a turnaround in her international career.
