  "account": "In Kasugai, Japan, on October 3, PGA Tour winner Kim Joo-hyung claimed the men's golf gold medal at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games. This victory also contributed to South Korea's achievement of a silver medal in the team event. Kim, who is 24 years old, shot a final round score of six-under 64 at Kasugai Country Club East Course in Kasugai, located northeast of Nagoya. This performance resulted in Kim finishing with a total score of 18-under 262.\n\nThe win granted Kim exemption from mandatory military service, a benefit extended to athletes who win an Asian Games gold medal and have not yet completed their mandatory duty. Kim, a four-time PGA Tour champion, adds to the list of top athletes who have taken advantage of this exemption, including golfing peers Kim Si-woo and Im Sung-jae, who secured the team gold medal three years ago.\n\nIn the team standings, where the best scores of each country from three players per team are combined after each round, South Korea secured the second position, trailing China by 26-under.",
