Will the Women's British Open, the last major tournament of the LPGA Tour season, also end as a feast for Korean golfers?

The AIG Women's British Open will kick off at the Milton Keynes Golf Club in northern London on Wednesday. South Korean players, who have dominated three of the four majors this season, are looking forward to good results in their last major. Ko Jin-young (24) with two major victories this season, Lee Jung-eun (63) who won the U.S. Women's Open, Park In-bee (31) with seven major victories, and Park Sung-hyun (26), who won one major each in the 2017-2018 season, are considered favorites.

Usually, the Women's British Open was held at the Links Course on the beach, but this year it will take place at the Wuburn Golf Club in the inland. Built in 1976, the golf course has been held for European Tours and senior European Tours, while the British Open was held mainly in the 1990s and has been held for a total of nine times so far.

This year's event will be called the "Marquise Course" among three courses at the Warburn Golf Course. The European Golf Design, the oldest of the three courses, was created in 2000, and was designed with three leading British golf commentators, including Peter Alice, Clive Clark and Alex. The course is densely lined with tall trees, reminiscent of a huge forest park. The fairway is narrow, and each hole has a severe bend. It was only in 2016 that the British Open took place on the course, when Lee Mi-rim, 29, set an 18-hole tie record of 10-under in the first round, and Ariya Jutanugarn of Thailand beat Lee Mi-rim by two strokes at 16-under.

Park Won, a JTBC Golf commentator, said, "I can't feel the wind well on the course because the trees are dense, but the wind is strong on the trees." Therefore, players who control the environment, including the wind, by putting their accurate shots ahead of them. We must go beyond the peculiar circumstances of England, where the weather is ever changing. A number of players have already failed to adjust to the course due to the rain and wind from the practice round.

Fortunately, there is no rain forecast on the 1st to 4th of the competition period. However, as the lowest temperature is forecast to rise to 13 degrees Celsius and the highest temperature to 25 degrees Celsius, it is important to maintain the condition in a weather where the daily temperature varies greatly. When Lee Mi-rim set the record for minimum pars, 45 out of 144 players had under par on the course, as it was held in sunny weather.

Amid the pressure of major for the first two consecutive weeks in history, players are eager to adapt to the course at the last minute. Park said, "The weather is likely to be the key. "I had a hard time in 2016 because of the weather," >"I'm hoping for better results because I've experienced more than I did then, and I'm more comfortable with my psychology." Lee Jung-eun said, "It's okay to rain, but I think it'll be a bit difficult when it's windy. I'm practicing shots with low elasticity against the wind," she said.
