Choi Hyun-suk scored the decisive strike in the 9th frame and was able to laugh with a two-pin lead.

After the match, Choi Hyun-suk said, “Actually, I wasn’t in good shape before the tournament, but emptying my mind and participating in the game led to good results. To be honest, I think it was more luck than I did well today. I’m not satisfied with my performance, but only 2nd place I am happy that I finally won the championship in Cheongju, which was only my turn. Now, I will work harder towards the record for the most wins in both men and women.”

Rookie Shin Dong-soo defeated Ahn Jun-sang (Team MK H&C) 236-194 in the men’s final. Shin Dong-soo scored a double in the first and second frames to take the lead, and in the 4th and 6th frames Turkey, he led by more than 30 pins. Shin Dong-soo continued pitching without making any mistakes afterwards, and even succeeded in a double in the 9th and 10th frames, winning by 42 pins. 

Shin Dong-soo, who succeeded in winning his debut, said, “It’s still like a dream. I’ve only imagined winning, but I’m so happy to lift the championship trophy like this. In the third frame of the final, the fourth pin remained, so I took a different pitching strategy, and I took a different pitching strategy and increased speed on the outside line.” Pitching more alive led to good results. I want to do my best to show a better image without being arrogant about winning.”안전놀이터
