Amateur golfers with developmental disabilities are preparing to compete in the Adaptive Open.
The Adaptive Open, an event where amateur golfers and professionals play in pairs, was launched last year to discover golfers with developmental disabilities and is in its second year.
Golf stars such as Lee Seung-min, the inaugural U.S. Adaptive Open champion, and Kim Ha-neul, who plays on the professional golf tour, played a round and cheered on the participants.
