Should Yoon In-na overcome her cold eyes and perform her first victory ceremony after returning?

Yoon In-na's long shot and Lee Ye-won's sophistication produced a breathtaking match.
The winner was Lee Yewon.
The watershed was Hole 11 (par 4). Yoon Na-na, who failed to make a birdie putt, had a close-range putt first for the men to hole out.
Lee Ye-won, who was watching this, said his ball with par putt left was far away and asked Yoon Na to mark and putt again. In match play, the rule is that a long-distance player makes the putt first unless the opponent gives the consid. In the end, Yoon Na had to mark the point where she had already made the putt and then get back on the green and putt after Lee Ye-won's Papert holeout. In the end, Yun In-na was shaken, and eventually failed to advance to the finals. He also lost heavily in the third and fourth place matches.
If you take it lightly, it could have been passed as a subtle war of nerves between the same classmates. However, controversy arose between the fans of the two players as a short putt that could give them a consensus and a scene that appealed after a holeout overlapped.
Regardless of the controversy, the fact that the two players are not close has become clear.

In the first round of the Korean Women's Open held on June 16 of that year, he was embroiled in a controversy by hitting a ball from someone other than his own ball while looking for his ball that fell in the grass. In mid-July, a month later, he voluntarily reported Ogu Play to the Golf Association. Suspicions arose that they could have reported in advance, but they deliberately hid it and were forced to voluntarily report it due to other circumstances.
Super Rookie, who had already won the KLPGA Tour Ever Collagen Queen's Crown 2022 for the first time, was enjoying its peak popularity. The wavelength was huge. The reward and punishment committees for KGA and KLPGA were held respectively, and the ban on participation for three years was confirmed. Yun-na issued an apology and went into self-reflection. Yoon Na-na resumed her tour in April this season as the disciplinary action was reduced to one and a half years last year.
There was a lot of controversy over the return of the tour. Other professionals at the association strongly opposed the disciplinary reduction. There was even a move to boycott the competition. In an anonymous vote for colleagues who are active, everyone was said to have opposed the reduction.

Yoon or herself cannot be aware of this atmosphere. Although there have been times when the mentality has been slightly shaken, it has been creating a series of great matches amid the upward trend again recently.
However, he has repeatedly slipped on the threshold of winning.
He is the runner-up this season three times. Two of them were overtime losses. In the BC Card and Hankyung Ladies Cup, they lost to Park Hyun-kyung after a close game leading to the fourth extension, and lost to Lee Ga-young at the Lotte Open last week.
Yun Na-na, who is desperate, will compete in the High1 Resort Women's Open (total prize money of 1 billion won) which will open at Jeongseon High1 Country Club (par 72, 6,568 yards) in Gangwon Province on the 11th and try to win the fourth round of three games.
It's a golden opportunity. Park Hyun-kyung, who gave her first overtime loss this season, will take a break from this tournament. Park Hyun-kyung, who has won three games this season, is No. 1 in multiple wins, prize money, and grand prize. Strong competitors such as Lee Ye-won, the third-winner of another season and the second-ranked prize winner, Park Ji-young, the third-ranked and the fourth-ranked prize winner, and Hwang Yoo-min, the fifth-ranked prize winner, will all miss the Evian Championship, a major tournament of the LPGA Tour, to be held in France this week.
If Yoon Na-na overcomes the cold gaze and succeeds in the fourth game of three games, the winning ceremony is also of interest.
In the golf world, whether Yoon-na or her colleagues will voluntarily participate in ceremonies such as water baptism or flower baptism is drawing great attention. Will Yoon Na-na be able to achieve her first win since returning to disciplinary action at the High1 Resort Women's Open, where a large number of rivals have left. As curious as the result, it seems to be a situation on the scene of the championship ceremony.
