KO Jiwon “The Match Hasn't Truly Begun Yet”
[Eumseong=Kang Byeong-koo] The inaugural 2026 DB Women's Championship is underway at Rainbow Hills Country Club, where players are battling for a share of the tournament's KRW 1.2 billion purse.
Known for its mountainous layout, narrow fairways, and numerous blind holes, Rainbow Hills demands precision, patience, and strategic course management. Every shot can influence the leaderboard, making concentration a key factor throughout the week.
KO Jiwon displayed that focus as she calmly prepared for her next shot during the opening rounds.
Holding her driver while walking down the fairway, she maintained a composed expression and steady rhythm. Her gaze remained fixed ahead, reflecting the confidence and determination required to compete on one of the KLPGA Tour's most challenging layouts.
Rather than showing emotion, KO allowed her preparation and concentration to speak for themselves. The tournament may still be in its early stages, but she continues to build momentum one shot at a time.
The DB Women's Championship also features various special prizes and the tournament's signature “Champions Time” celebration, adding excitement for players and fans alike.
