Did You Know?
Seoul holds a unique piece of golf history: in 1921, during the Japanese colonial era, the very first golf course in Korea was established in Hyochang Park built around royal tombs and designed by British golfer H. E. Daunt. Today, the park serves as both a historic site and a green urban sanctuary.
A Champion from the Capital
Seoul is home to PGA TOUR star Si Woo Kim, who made history by becoming the youngest ever winner of The Players Championship in 2017 at just 21 years old.
