The KLPGA Tour Hi One Resort Women's Open 2026, set to be held at Hi One Country Club in Jeongseon, Gangwon Province, from Thursday through Sunday, has unveiled a range of hands-on programs and events for spectators ahead of its opening.
According to Hi One Resort, the centerpiece of this year's tournament will be a gallery plaza built on the lawn in front of the clubhouse, featuring food trucks and comfortable rest areas for visitors.
Interactive activities will include a screen putting challenge at the golf zone, a shooting challenge with Gangwon FC at the soccer zone, and a pocket billiards challenge blending golf and billiards at the billiards zone. A winner's photo zone and a Gangwon FC locker room photo zone will also be set up, offering families a variety of photo opportunities.
On Friday and Saturday evenings, a "Hi One Night Market" will run, bringing together food vendors in collaboration with local brands alongside various nighttime events.
At the first hole, a special high-five event will take place as players make their entrance, and children in attendance will receive a Hi One character doll — "Hihow" — on a first-come, first-served basis. On the second day of the tournament, Kangwon Land will host a fan signing session featuring key players.
Prize events for spectators have also been expanded. All ticketholders will receive a scratch lottery ticket during the tournament, with prizes ranging from golf equipment and everyday goods to luxury brand giveaways held each round.
"The Hi One Resort Women's Open is a premier summer festival where visitors can enjoy top-level domestic golf, a retreat in pristine nature and a wide range of hands-on experiences all at once," said Lee Min-ho, acting head of Kangwon Land's tourism marketing division. "We have prepared a rich lineup of gallery experience programs so that golf fans and families alike can create special summer memories, and we look forward to their support."
