While playing stably, Yoo made a painful mistake at just one hole. Yoo Song-gyu (29), who had been the lone lead until the second round, swallowed his regret on the third day of the competition.

In the third round of the 67th Korean Open Golf Championship (total prize money of 1.4 billion won) held at the Laviebel Country Club Duns Course (par 71) in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province on the 24th, Yoo Song-kyu recorded a three-over 74, writing one birdie, one bogey and one triple bogey.

Yoo Song-gyu, who was the lone top-ranked player through the second round at 7-under, trailed to the third place with 4-under 209 overall in the third round. Bboom Saksanshin of Thailand, who was ranking second, cut down three shots with five birdies and two bogeys in the third round to take the lead at 7-under par.

Yoo had a stable game with one birdie and one bogey through Hole 15, but recorded a triple bogey at Hole 16, putting a brake on his upward trajectory. "Overall play was not bad," said Yoo Song-kyu, who met reporters after the third round. "The ball fell out due to a hazard at Hole 16. My second shot headed to the right. I didn't make any big mistakes except for the missed shot at Hole 16."

Regarding the difference between the second and third rounds, he said, "There was nothing different than the atmosphere," adding, "There was a little pressure." I kept playing with the thought that I only played even par."

The flow as planned was greatly reversed at Hole 16 when he recorded a triple bogey. "It wasn't difficult (even par plan), but I made an unexpected big mistake at Hole 16," Yoo said again.

On the last day of the competition, they will play in a group with the Thai players, who are competing for the lead. Yoo said, "I will play in the same group as the Thai players in the fourth round. I will play my own game. I will slowly follow the mood."

The winner of this competition will win 500 million won in prize money and a ticket to participate in the major tournament, The Open. 스포츠토토
