Congratulations to Vda!

Vda claimed the DG Division Championship title at The JGS Korean Championship 2026, held at The Heaven Resort, Korea, from 3–5 November!

Competing in challenging conditions, with cold temperatures and strong winds, Vda showed great resilience and determination throughout the tournament. After finishing the opening round at +4, she bounced back with an even-par second round, placing second and just two shots behind the leader heading into the final day.

Despite the pressure and a two-stroke penalty in the opening round, Vda stayed focused, learned from the experience and continued to give her best until the end.

Adding to this fantastic achievement, Vda has earned the opportunity to represent Thailand at the Asian Junior Masters in February 2027!

Her prizes included a champion's trophy, a 3.7-gram pure silver medal and a replica Masters jacket.
