Seongjae Lim Forced to Withdraw from CJ Byron Nelson Cup due to Cold Pains

Lim Seong-jae (26, CJ), who continued his forced march back and forth between the United States and Korea for two weeks, withdrew before the first round of the CJ Byron Nelson Cup for the PGA Tour. The cause is cold pains in the body due to accumulated fatigue.

Seongjae Lim withdrew from the competition, which started at TPC Craig Ranch (par 71) in McKinney, Texas, USA on the 3rd (Korea time). Because the CJ Cup is a competition held by its main sponsor, CJ Group, he had a strong will to participate. It seemed that there was no problem until the practice round, but in the end, he was unable to participate in the competition.

Lim Seong-jae said in a statement that day, “The CJ Cup is a special competition, so I came here with high expectations. However, my health deteriorated, so I was inevitably unable to participate in this competition. I won in Korea last week, and my general shooting feeling was bad. “Okay, I had high expectations for this competition, but I’m heartbroken that I can’t participate in the competition because of a cold sponsored by CJ, the staff, and the fans who worked hard to prepare for the competition.” He also promised, “Your support and support really helps,” and “I will get better and come back as soon as possible.”

Seongjae Lim, who is active in the PGA, has been busy going back and forth between Korea and the United States for the past two weeks. Two weeks ago, he tied for 12th place at the RBC Heritage Tour PGA, and returned to Korea last week to take part in the Woori Financial Championship, a domestic tournament.

At the time, Lim Seong-jae complained that he was having trouble adjusting to jet lag and said, “I’m so tired that I can’t come to my senses in the afternoon. The most important thing is to fall asleep when you should sleep. Usually, I don’t consume caffeine during the competition, but this week I will drink coffee to overcome sleep.” “I believe so,” he said.

However, Seongjae Lim survived without drinking caffeine until the end of the Woori Financial Championship. In addition, he successfully won in the fourth round and successfully defended his title. Lim Seong-jae, who immediately returned to the United States, aimed to win for two consecutive weeks, but eventually withdrew due to a cold. Because Lim Seong-jae withdrew, Noh Seung-yeol, who was on hand, received a ticket to participate.
