The second round of the 'High One Resort Women's Open 2022' was held at High One Country Club in Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon-do. Lim Hee-jung, a native of Taebaek, Gangwon-do, lived in Taebaek until graduating from Sabuk Middle School and practiced a lot at High1 Resort CC. So I know more about the competition course than anyone else. Therefore, about 30 banners are located everywhere in the 4km section from the entrance of the venue to pray for Lim Hee-jung's victory and good performance. Lim Hee-jung won her first title at the "High One Women's Open" in 2019 and won her second consecutive title by reaching the top last year. If he wins this tournament, he will be the fifth KLPGA Tour player to win three consecutive tournaments in the same tournament.

After the first round, Lim Hee-jung said, "I started with the hope of achieving three consecutive wins in the same tournament, but I played with difficulty due to my poor initial start. Still, it's good to finish the second half with a walk while looking for my play. I think I can practice with hope." Regarding the burden of losing three consecutive games, he said, "I didn't have any, but I think I felt pressured today. When the competition started, I think the gallery came and was conscious. I think it's difficult to achieve the record because of this burden," he said.

Lim Hee-jung recorded three birdies and four bogeys in the second round. In the middle of the second round, he tied for 61st with a total of three over par 147. As a result of playing the remaining games on the morning of the 21st as five groups in the second round failed to finish due to bad weather, Lim Hee-jung was eliminated from the cut as the number of strokes based on the cut was decided to be more than two over par. Lim Hee-jung, who sought to win three consecutive championships, was quite disappointing. Meanwhile, until the second round, Kim Soo-ji and Seo Yeon-jung tied for the lead with a 6-under 138. Kim Soo-ji shot a 4-under 68 with five birdies and one bogey, and Seo Yeon-jung shot a 2-under 70 with four birdies and two bogeys.
