Lee So-mi is a rookie who came to the U.S. after winning five titles in the Korean Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) tour. Notably, she had to wait twice to have a chance. As she sent her caddie back, she rushed to the tournament in the first round to the point where her father served as her caddie.
He took a step down from the sole lead in the first round, but he will try to win his first championship by keeping the lead for two consecutive days.
The LPGA Tour also said, "I can't believe I joined the team late as a substitute. Stark withdrew an hour and 30 minutes before the tee time for the first round. After the first round with my father, I played with my caddie for the second round."안전놀이터
