16-year-old Tiffany Lee, fresh off a victory on the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour, aims for her first title in a co-sanctioned event with the Korean Ladies Professional Golf Association and the LPGA of Taiwan. Lee is one of the youngest players in the field, but her experience and dedication to training make her a strong contender in the $200,000 championship.
Winner on the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour, Jiwon Lee now goes for a title in an event co-sanctioned by the Korean Ladies Professional Golf Association and the LPGA of Taiwan.
As she gears up for the tournament starting on Wednesday at The Country Club in Santa Rosa in Laguna, Lee is leaving nothing to chance and is undergoing rigorous training to sharpen her game for the $200,000, 54-hole championship. “I’ve been practicing a lot to prepare for this event,” she said. “I’ve been working on my iron accuracy to help me get those birdies in, and I’m looking forward to executing that during the tournament.”
However, her early success was followed by a string of mid-table finishes in the latter part of 2024, including a tied-41st result at the Party Golfers Ladies Open in Taiwan last November. That experience prompted her to reassess her game, making adjustments to ensure she remains competitive against the best.
