[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○..."A dream come true."

It is the wish fulfillment of the '18-year-old young gun' Kim Joo-hyung (CJ Logistics). On the 7th (Korean time), after finishing the first day of the PGA Championship (total prize money $11 million), a major of the U.S. PGA Tour held at Harding Park TPC in San Francisco, California (par 70, 7,234 yards), he posted a commemorative photo with the 'resurrected golf emperor' Tiger Woods (USA) on his Instagram. He received an invitation as a 'Top 100' world ranking player and appeared on the major stage for the first time.

Before the tournament, he expressed his excitement, saying, "Since Woods is also participating, I am happy just to be able to play there," and "I want to see Woods practicing and Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland) playing at least once." Kim Joo-hyung is the protagonist who became the youngest winner (18 years and 21 days) last month at the Korean Professional Golf (KPGA) Korean Tour Gunsan CC Open. He also started smoothly in the first round of the PGA Championship by shooting an even-par 70.
