Will changing the venue of the tournament be a good luck for Lim Sung-jae.
Lim Sung-jae has a very good start to the new season. Lim Sung-jae wrote 1 under par in the final round of the PGA Tour Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines Golf Club South Course in San Diego, California on the 26th (Korea time). Four rounds, a total of five under par. He finished the tournament tied for fourth with a total of 283 pars.
Lim Sung-jae, who got off to a good start this season by finishing third in the opening game of The Sentry, overcame the shock of failing to make the American Express cut and recorded an excellent performance in this tournament.
Lim Sung-jae, who started tied for 8th place ahead of the final round, recorded 4 birdies and 3 bogeys to finish 1 under par. The final round tension and the difficult course made the players' overall score bad, and it was a good performance.
He could have won the championship. He continued to chase the lead by two or three strokes. However, he missed the par putt on the 15th hole, effectively moving away from the competition for the championship.

Another good thing is that the Genesis Championship, which opens on the 14th of next month, will be held once again in Torrey Pines. The tournament was originally scheduled to be held at the Riviera Country Club near L.A., but the venue was finally changed to Torrey Pines due to recent wildfire damage. Lim Sung-jae is confident as the competition is held again on his favorite course. He "I've loved the Tory Pine South Course here for a long time. The course here should be especially good for the long game, but I think the course here and the style I play match well because my strength is in the long game. So I think I'll be a little more confident than the Ribeira course at the Genesis competition", he explained.
Meanwhile, Lee Kyung-hoon played three over par in the final round and tied for ninth with a total of two under par in the fourth round. The final round was disappointing, but still, there was a result of finishing the tournament in the top 10. Harris English of the U.S. won the championship.
