Moon Do-yup claimed his first victory of the season with a spectacular lob shot on the final hole.

Moon carded five birdies against one bogey for a 4-under round in the final round of the KPGA Gyeongbuk Open (total prize purse of 700 million won) held Sunday at Golfzon County Seonsan (par 71) in Gumi, North Gyeongsang Province. Finishing at 14-under 270, Moon edged out runner-up Moon Dong-hyun by one stroke. It marked his sixth career title. The winner's prize was 140 million won.
