In terms of stability, the Korean golfer was the best athlete in the 4 days of competition. Although not scoring too many birdie points, but Lina Kim's strength is certainty, minimizing mistakes. And to the decisive par point in the last hole, Kim has officially stepped into the championship of this year's Lexus Challenge. Before that, Kim also won the VGA Tour with the title of DNSE Vietnam Open 2022 at SkyLake Golf & Resorts.

In addition, the victory also brought Lina Kim 60 million VND from the prize fund of 200 million VND, and a ticket to attend the HSBC Women's Golf Championship.
