The JGS Series 2, hosted by The JGS Korea, successfully concluded from June 22 to 24 at Seongmunan Country Club in Wonju, Gangwon Province.

Seongmunan CC is recognized as a premium golf course offering top-tier course conditions in Korea and differentiated facilities. Junior golfers from both domestic and international backgrounds participated in the tournament, engaging in fierce competition aimed at the global stage.

In the Class A/B divisions, points were awarded for both the World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR) and the Junior Golf Scoreboard (JGS), while the Class C and D (men's) divisions awarded JGS points only. This provided a foundation for domestic junior golfers to build global competitiveness and leap onto the world stage.

In the WAGR division (Class A/B), Jo Hee-won claimed the boys' title, achieving back-to-back victories following his win at The JGS Series 1. Having already been ranked in the World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR) through his Series 1 victory, Jo Hee-won once again demonstrated his competitiveness as a top-tier domestic junior golfer with this win.

In the girls' division, Ha Yu-jin secured the championship and is set to be newly added to the World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR), marking the birth of another new WAGR-registered player through The JGS Korea.

Based on the results of the WAGR division (Class A/B), the top four boys and top two girls earned qualification for the AJGA International Pathway Series (AJGA IPS Thailand) to be held in Chiang Mai, Thailand, in August. Additionally, the winners of each division were granted entry to the Taiwan Junior Masters, securing opportunities to compete on the international stage.

Meanwhile, The JGS Series 3 is scheduled to take place from August 19 to 21 at The Heaven Country Club, providing domestic junior golfers with another opportunity to aim for the global stage.
