Ham Jeong-woo (30, Hana Financial Group), who became the best player in the Korea Professional Golf Association (KPGA) last year, continues his challenge on the American stage.

KPGA announced on the 25th, "Ham Jeong-woo will leave for the United States on the 28th and participate in two tournaments on the Korn Ferry Tour, the second division tour of the PGA of America."

Ham Jeong-woo will participate in the Club Car Championship held in Savannah, Georgia from the 5th to the 8th of next month and the LECOM Suncoast Classic held in Lakewood Ranch, Florida from the 18th to the 21st.

Ham Jeong-woo said, “Now is the time to show results,” and added, “As I have adapted to the Korn Ferry Tour stage, I will do my best to deliver good news to the fans in these two tournaments.”

Jeong Woo, who won his first KPGA Tour grand prize last year six years after his debut, competed in the final round of PGA Tour Q School. He qualified for some Korn Ferry Tour events this season as he was tied for 45th at the time.

Ham Jeong-woo said, "These two competitions are actually the last opportunity. I need to achieve good results to be able to participate in additional competitions in the future. I have prepared diligently. I am confident as I am determined to stay in the United States for a long time."

Ham Jeong-woo participated in four competitions on the Korn Ferry Tour in the 2024 season and succeeded in passing the cut in two competitions.
