Disappointed with Se-ri Pak's juniors, "break the mold"

The second round of 'The Queens', which became more exciting with the introduction of difficult missions, opened.

In the 3rd episode of TV CHOSUN's golf survival program 'The Queens' (produced/invested by In&MC / Jinseok Lee), which aired on the 5th, players participating in the second round mission were depicted.

In the second round of 'The Queens', the final ranking is determined by adding the main game score (70%) and mission score (30%). The mission was designed by Master Pak Se-ri himself in order to check the skills players need when competing on the world stage. Players also expressed their curiosity by guessing the identity of the mission, which could be a big variable in advancing to the next round.

The first mission of the second round, which was a team competition, was 'Queen of Putting', which required successful putting with the fewest strokes possible. As a result of the mission, thanks to the performance of Kang Ga-yul, who succeeded in a picturesque long-distance one-putt, Group 2 (Kim Ha-rim, Woo Yun-ji, Kang Ga-yul, and Yoon Ha-yeon) took first place. MCs Leeteuk and Jang Seong-gyu also exclaimed and could not hide their excitement at Kang Ga-yul's amazing putting.

Then, Group 4 (Cho Eun-chae, Lee Seo-young, Cho Ye-won, and Yoon Gyu-mi), who won the overtime with Lee Seo-young's winning putt, took second place, Group 3 (Kim Hyun-jung, Lee Seo-yoon, Lee Mi-sang, and Lee Joo-hyeon) took third place, and Group 1 (Park Jin-seon) , Lee Da-bin, Yoon Seo-jeong, and Kim Stella) ranked 4th respectively.

The second challenge in the second round was ‘Escape from Hell’s Bunker’, a difficult personal mission that required bunker shots from difficult positions to be placed on the green around the hole cup. When a mission that was more difficult than expected appeared, the players' faces darkened with worry, and even in the actual game, they struggled against steep slopes and obstacles.

After the ‘Escape from Hell’s Bunker’ mission, Se-ri Pak expressed her disappointment with the players, saying, “Honestly, I was very disappointed.” In particular, he pointed out the standardized play of using only one club (sand wedge) in the bunker and said, “All 14 golf clubs are meant to be used. “In order to compete with world-class players, it is important to break the mold and practice a variety of shots,” he advised the players.

In the 4th episode of 'The Queens', which will be aired next week, the 2nd round match that will determine the direction of advancement to the final round will be depicted. In particular, the preview shows the players in confusion as the game is changed to a foursome (two-person game), raising viewers' curiosity.

TV CHOSUN's 'The Queens', Korea's first women's golf survival program, airs every Sunday at 10:40 pm.
