Jang Yoo-bin and Yoon Na-na, the men's and women's golf stars who are conquering the overseas stage for the first time this season, will earn prize money that makes a sound 'billion' from the beginning. The prize money is enormous even though it's not a victory, it's a normal performance.
Jang Yu-bin tied for 23rd at the LIV Golf Adelaide (total prize money of 25 million dollars), the second tournament of the season held at Grange Golf Club in Adelaide, Australia.
Jang Yoo-bin, who became the first Korean player to join the Tran WarLIV Golf after winning the KPGA Grand Prize and the top prize money award last year, will receive $197,714 in prize money despite tying for 23rd. It is about the middle of the 54 players, and they earned 270 million won from Hanwha.
LIV Golf, which began in 2022, distributes enormous prize money to players amid support from Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund. Joaquin Niemann, the winner of this competition, will receive $4 million in individual prize money alone. In addition, LIV Golf can receive team prize money by adding up the performances of the same team members. If Jang Yu-bin adapts to the new stage and wins in good condition, he can win nearly 6 billion won in prize money at once. Indeed, when it comes to the prize money, it is 'Dream Stage'.
Yoon Na-na, who conquered the KLPGA stage last year and entered the U.S. LPGA. She participated in the European Ladies Professional Golf Tour (LET) PIF Saudi Ladies International to overcome her slump in the Founders Cup, her debut game. The competition also lured players with a lot of prize money. The total prize money alone was $5 million. a scale that is hard to see in a women's competition.
Yoon Na-na tied for fourth place at 10-under par, reportedly receiving about $160,000 in prize money in addition to the team event. It is a huge amount of about 230 million won in Korean won.
Lee So-mi, who competed with Yoon In-na, earned a total of $442,000 in individual and team events as the runner-up in the competition. About 630 million won. I couldn't find a sponsor this year, so I properly relieved the sadness of playing in a plain hat.
