A ceremony stage to settle the year.

This year's field and awards ceremony were held by Yoon Na.

Although he won only once, he won three gold medals in the grand prize points, prize money and the lowest number of strokes with his steady plays reaching the top 10 14 times, including four runners-up and three runners-up.

Yoon In-na's stage next year is likely to be an LPGA, not a domestic one.

Yoon Na-na, who is directly moving to the U.S. and preparing for the qualifying series, which will be held from the 5th of next month, showed confidence in her new challenge with bold determination.

Hwang Yu-min received the Popularity Award, which was voted by fans for a week.

Hwang Yoo-min, who ranked fourth in the prize money with his "Dakgong style" despite his small size, beat Park Hyun-kyung with three wins and Yoon Na-na with three wins after fierce competition.

The KLPGA Tour, which produced only five players with three wins, including Park Hyun-kyung, Park Ji-young, Lee Ye-won, Bae So-hyun, and Madasom, and four players with more than 1 billion won in prize money, will visit fans again in March next year.
