Korea Championship Presented by Genesis Power Ratings

Thomas Hawley 0 comment

International golf returns to Korea for the first time since 2019 this week as the DP World Tour stops at the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club in Incheon. A field with a strongly international flavor is headed by Polish player Adrian Meronk, 134th in the current Hawley Rankings, and Danish Rasmus Hojgaard, 127th. Meronk missed the cut at the Masters by two strokes and finished second in his group at the WGC-Match Play. Hojgaard, currently the higher-rated of twin professional golfers, was 16th last week at the DP World event in Japan. He was coming off a 10-week break from two Middle Eastern events where he was in the top 10 once (Ras Al Khaimah) and top 20 once. 29-year-old Scottish player Grant Forrest is playing well; he has top-10s in Japan and Singapore events on the DP World Tour this year plus two in the top-15 at Kenya and Thailand. The top Korean players in the field are Jeunghun Wang, 249th in the Hawley Rankings; Kyong-jun Moon, 308th; Bi-o Kim, 322nd; and Sang-hyun Park, 337th.
