But whenever we had our vacations, they allowed us to do so. I remembered vividly my first time hitting the golf ball again after about five or six months into army. Every minute was so precious and I really treasured each time when I was out on the golf course or at the driving range. I\u2019m very happy to be back, playing among fellow professionals. It has been a month since I was discharged from the army and I\u2019ve dedicated all my time to golf ever since. I\u2019m looking forward to a good challenge this week and will be very interested to see where I finished on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Yikuen Chang (Kor)<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m driving the ball really well right now so I\u2019ll be using a lot of drivers this week. It\u2019s pretty wide open here and you got to hit it really far. So I guess I\u2019ll have an advantage there. I hope to set a record on the Asian Tour like what I did on the local Tour last week. I\u2019ve lots of Korean fans and there\u2019ll be a lot of people cheering me on. That obviously helps and I\u2019ll try my best for the week.<\/p>\n<p>David Lipsky (Usa)<\/p>\n<p>This is my first visit back to Korea after four years. My mum\u2019s Korean and I look forward to playing in front of the passionate Korean crowd again. I\u2019ve developed as a player. My game has gone better. I just want to come back and challenge myself. I\u2019ve grown as a player both physically and mentally and I want to challenge myself even more. I\u2019m going to playing in Asia for the rest of the year and winning the Order of Merit again is at the back of my mind. That\u2019s the goal I would like to achieve at the end of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"images\/golf\/Sangmoon-Bae-new.jpg\" alt=\"Sangmoon Bae new\" style=\"margin-right: 8px; margin-bottom: 8px; float: left;\" \/>Incheon, Korea: Korea\u2019s Sangmoon Bae will be aiming to come up tops against a power-packed field in his first professional tournament at the Shinhan Donghae Open since being discharged from military service last month.<\/p>\n<p>Bae, a three-time Asian Tour winner, who has also won twice on the PGA TOUR, is excited to return to competitive golf after having limited playing opportunities in the army.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[6480,466,22562,16311],"class_list":["post-35528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-world-golf-news","tag-indian-sports","tag-indian-sports-news","tag-sangmoon-bae","tag-shinhan-donghae-open"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Sangmoon Bae swings back into action after military service at Shinhan Donghae Open - IndianSportsNews.com - Latest Updated Sports News &amp; Sports Blogs of Cricket, Hockey, Golf, Football, Tennis &amp; Other Sports<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/?p=35528\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Sangmoon Bae swings back into action after military service at Shinhan Donghae Open - IndianSportsNews.com - Latest Updated Sports News &amp; Sports Blogs of Cricket, Hockey, Golf, Football, Tennis &amp; Other Sports\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Incheon, Korea: Korea\u2019s Sangmoon Bae will be aiming to come up tops against a power-packed field in his first professional tournament at the Shinhan Donghae Open since being discharged from military service last month.
