Jin Jeong

[Big D 88]

Every week i notice on the leaderboard Jin Jeong towards the bottom on the european tour.

I noticed his exemption status is medical extension and was wondering does anyone know if he is still playing through injury?

His stats, as a touring pro, are shocking.

2015
Stroke average 81.64
Driving Accuracy 27%
GIR 37%
Avg finishing pos - 143rd

2016
Stroke average 77.84
Driving Accuracy 42%
GIR 54%
Avg finishing pos - 124th

He's currently +9 thru 17 today including 2x triple bogeys, 1 double, and 2 bogeys along with a birdie

Briefly saw him at Wentworth a couple of years ago. It was a sad sight.
