"It's more regrettable than it's done well (laughs)."

Lee Se-hee, 27, however, sang "Fill-in" instead of "satisfaction."

Lee Se-hee tied for sixth with six birdies and two bogeys on the first day of the KLPGA (Korea Women's Professional Golf) Tour's OK Savings Bank Etman Open (total prize money of 800 million won and winning prize money of 144 million won) at Club 72 Sky Course (par 72, 6,723 yards) in Yeongjong-do, Incheon, on the 13th.



On this day, Yeongjongdo Island was not only free from the influence of the wind but also from repeated rain. Lee Se-hee, who started with consecutive birdies in the third hole (par 5) and the fourth hole (par 3), added birdies in the eighth hole (par 3) and reduced three strokes in the first half alone. Lee Se-hee, who added birdies in the 11th and 13th holes (par 4) respectively, slowed down with a bogey in the 15th hole (par 4), but added birdies again in the 17th hole (par 4). He finished with a bogey on the 18th hole (par 5), but started as a top group by reducing four strokes on the first day alone in a difficult environment.

Lee Se-hee, who carries the modifier 'beauty golfer', has also attracted attention for her cheerful long hit and sophisticated green attack. However, in the second half of the year, I struggled while not taking advantage of these strengths.

Lee Se-hee "I've been troubled by swings in recent days. I wanted to play draw ball, but I kept getting a fade right miss. I increased the amount of practice to correct it, but there was a bit too much", he confessed. Then "There were a lot of driver misses in the last competition, but today's shot went better than I thought it would be", he said. "I think there's more to be desired than good." There were about three mistakes in the putt today," he added.

Even during the season, self-management, which was not lazy, shone. Lee Se-hee said, `I discussed with Professor Park Chang-joon and the trainer and tried to correct not only shots but also exercise parts together to correct them in detail.' `I haven't run much under the excuse that I'm tired, but recently my heart rate went up to more than 200 with (Choi) Hye-jin, but the next day, I got weirdly better. I think I got help from that part as well."



Lee Se-hee, who made 12 cuts in 17 competitions this season. However, he has only made the top 10 once. The result is significant in that it not only rebounded, but also laid the foundation for a desperate first win.

Lee Se-hee said, `I've been preparing very hard, but there was stress in areas where the results didn't follow. I've let go of that obsession to some extent now"I think the score is good when the weather or the environment is bad. I try to focus on my job and make judgments that fit the environment. He said, `I want to do my best without regret, focusing on whatever results come out" expressed his determination.
