(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Choi In-young = Korean-American Daniel Kang (29) missed the opening game of the American Women’s Professional Golf (LPGA) Tour in the 2021 season and took second place.
Daniel Kang in the final 4th round of the LPGA Tour Diamond Resort Champions Tournament ($1.2 million in prize money) held at the Four Seasons Golf and Sports Club Orlando (par 71, 6,645 yards) in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, USA on the 25th (Korean time). He tied 4 buddies and 1 bogie and hit 3 under par 68.
Daniel Kang, who recorded a final total of 24 under par 260, made the same shot as Jessica Corda (USA) and was taken to overtime.
The overtime tee shot on the 18th hole (par 3) was put by Daniel Kang closer to the fin.
However, Jessica Corda first captured the 9m birdie and defeated the steamer.
Daniel Kang missed the 5.5m birdie putt and gave the championship to Jessica Corda.
Jessica Corda added a multiplier in about three years after the 2018 Honda LPGA Thailand, and has been in her 6th win. The winning prize is 180,000 dollars (about 200 million won).
Jessica Corda also set a record of winning 4 out of 6 in the opening game of the season. In 2012 (ISPS Handa Women’s Australia Open), 2014 (Pure Silk Bahama LPGA Classic) and 2018 (Honda LPGA Thailand), he also topped the season’s first tournament.

Daniel Kang missed the chance to win six in his career.
Daniel Kang aimed to win the’Wire to Wire’, which held the lead throughout the 1st and 4th rounds, but gave the lead in the last minute overtime.
Daniel Kang, who started round 4 with the lead in the second hit, cruised while catching a birdie in holes 1 (par 4), 7 holes (par 5), and 14 holes (par 3). At one time, it widened the gap to the lead in the fourth hit.
However, on the 15th hole (par 4), I was in crisis by writing down the view with a regrettable putt. This is the first episode of Daniel’s lecture. If you go back to last season, it is an example that came out after 65 holes.
By this example, Daniel Kang was rushing to a situation where Jessica and Nelli Corda sisters were chased by one and two shots, respectively.
Sister Corda, who played in the championship group with Daniel Kang, got all tee shots on the green well on the 16th hole (par 4).
On the other hand, the tee shot of the Daniel River fell in the woods on the right.
Daniel Kang, fortunately, was saved without penalty, putting the second shot in the rough next to the green, and defending the par.
However, her sister Jessica Corda caught Buddy and overtook Daniel River as a joint lead. My younger brother Nelly Corda wrote the par.
Daniel Kang and Jessica Corda side-by-side with a birdie on the 17th hole (par 5) and a par on the 18th hole in an overtime match.
Jessica Corda hit a 5-under par 66 and a final total of 24 under par 260. In the 3rd round the previous day, he hit an individual minimum of 60, laying the groundwork for winning the turnaround.
Nelly Corda took third place alone with a final total of 22 under par 262.

Jeon Inchi (27) finished the tournament in fourth place alone with a final total of 17 under par 267.
Jeonin-in made the best performance in 1 year and 3 months after the BMW Ladies Championship in October 2019 (joint 4th place) by reducing 4 strokes with 4 buddies, including catching birdies on holes 15-17 this day.
After winning the 2018 KEB Hana Bank Championship, Jeon In-ji started off this season with a good feeling.
Park Hee-young (34) and Heo Mi-jeong (32) were tied for 22nd with a final total of 3 under par 281.
In the last three years, 25 LPGA Tour winners participated in the competition, and celebrities participated and played in the same group as the professional players.
Celebrities set a separate ranking by assigning points according to the result of each hole (variant stableford), and tennis player Mardi Fish (USA) climbed 158 points to the top.
Anika Sorenstam (Sweden), the’legendary’ of women’s golf, who participated as a celebrity, not a player, took 9th place with 134 points.
