Even if you can't play golf well, there will be a competition where you can win a prize if you can enjoy it.

Pacific Lynx Korea (PLK) will host an amateur golf competition called 「Double Golf」. Anyone, young or old, who enjoys golf by breaking away from the existing stroke play method has an opportunity to win the award.

The tournament adopted a two-man team and a best ball game method. If your partner is good at golf, you can win the championship. The competition will be held through September in the Seoul metropolitan area and the Yeongnam-Honam area. The final round will be held on November 20 at Lotte Skyhill CC in Jeju.



The method of the final round is also interesting. Individual caddies are also allowed to play on foot in all 18 holes 'Walking Golf'. Caddy participating on this day can participate regardless of their status, and caddy uniforms are also provided like major competitions. The player's family and acquaintances can freely go around the stadium and cheer. The winning team will be given a ticket to the Sony Open in Hawaii in 2025 and a local round tour.

PLK hopes to contribute a little to the popularization and expansion of the base of golf so that the Korean golf culture can be established more soundly through this competition and that all men and women of all ages can love golf"There are still many shortcomings because it is the first competition to start this year, but if the participants' responses are good and amateur golfers are interested, we will continue to expand to open more qualifiers next year and expand their participation methods."
