Kim Soo-ji recorded a two-over 74 in the last four rounds of the tournament at Blue Heron Golf Club (par 72) in Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do on the 6th, winning her first title of the season with a total of 2-under 286.
Kim Soo-ji, who recorded her sixth career win in the last major tournament of the season, secured 270 million won in prize money amid a barrage of beer.
Kim Soo-ji, who was particularly strong in the fall, won the championship five times in September and October from 2021, proving herself to be the autumn queen by winning another championship in the sunny autumn weather.
In an interview with the broadcaster and winning the championship, Kim Soo-ji said, `I don't know the exact reason. "I do my best to win every tournament, but the results come out in the fall."
It was the first time in about a year and two months since he won the Hanwha Classic in a major competition in August last year. It is the first Hite Jinro Championship victory in three years since 2021.
