Seowon Hills at Seowon Valley Country Club

Video Highlights

Event Statistics

Description

Moving Day at Seowon Valley Country Club arrives with the field facing the most aggressive pin positions of the week. The primary challenge for the players is navigating the "Valley-to-Seowon" course transition, where the greens on the back nine are traditionally kept firmer and faster than the opening holes. The objective for the leaders is to maintain their scoring pace while managing the pressure of a ₩1,500,000,000 prize purse, one of the most significant on the KPGA Tour.

Strategically, the third round is defined by risk management on the par-5s. The goal for the chasers is to take advantage of the reachable 11th and 17th holes to close the gap before the final day. Conversely, the objective for the frontrunners is to avoid the penalizing fairway bunkers that have been deepened for the 2026 season. With the Gyeonggi winds expected to swirl in the afternoon, the tactical focus remains on high-launch iron shots to hold the narrow, tiered greens and secure a spot in Sunday's final pairing.
