Jinichiro Kozuma leads Sansan KBC Augusta Golf Tournament

Jinichiro Kozuma maintained his solo lead at 17-under par during the third round of the Sansan KBC Augusta Golf Tournament at Kesaya Golf Course in Fukuoka. Despite facing extreme heat with temperatures reaching 35 degrees Celsius, Kozuma managed a score of 70, including six birdies and two bogeys, after overcoming a difficult double bogey on the fourth hole.

The tournament event also featured entertainment and fan engagement initiatives. The Fukuoka-based idol group HKT48 performed a five-song concert at the 18th hole following the round. Additionally, the tournament saw the return of an all-you-can-drink beer promotion for the first time in seven years, available to spectators using the shuttle bus service between JR Chikuzen-Maebaru Station and the course to help mitigate local traffic congestion.
