Again, Kane, is the transfer a failure?" I asked Postecoglou. What was his response??
Manager Enze Postecoglou responded that even if Harry Kane fails to win this season, the transfer itself does not mean failure.
Tottenham Hotspur source "The Last Word on Spurs" quoted "Binniman Sports" as saying that "Coach Enze Postecoglou was asked if Kane's transfer to Bayern Munich should be viewed as a failure if it ends without a game this season."
According to the media, Postecoglou said, "No. It's unfair. I'm not speaking for Kane. He left Tottenham not only because of the victory."
Kane has never lifted a trophy in 11 years since he made it to the Premier League in the 2012-13 season. His personal skills are unquestionable, but he has been the leading scorer in the PL three times, which has nothing to do with winning.
In the 2014-15 season, when Kane started playing as a starting member, he scored 21 goals in the league. However, Tottenham stayed in third place, behind Leicester City, which had a similar victory. The following year was no different. Kane actually improved by scoring 25 goals, but this time he had to settle for second place in the league, not overcoming the mountains of Chelsea.
Despite Kane's outstanding performance, Tottenham didn't continue to perform well. In the 2020-21 season, Kane recorded amazing records with 23 goals and 14 assists in the league. He earned both scoring and helping titles. However, Tottenham lost 12 games in the league and dropped to seventh place in the league.
Kane's absence continued in cup competitions, let alone in the league. In the 2018-19 season, Tottenham miraculously advanced to the UEFA Champions League final, but lost to Liverpool 0-2. Kane, who played full time in the final, failed to score a goal and remained silent. He has never won the FA Cup or the Football League Cup.
In the end, Kane decided to leave Tottenham Hotspur this season to move to Munich in order to break the terrible 'unfortunate' situation. Having achieved 11 consecutive Bundesliga wins, Munich was like a 'guaranteed win' for Kane. However, the team already lost its title this season as it was blocked by Leverkusen, which was unbeaten. Although the season is not over yet, Leverkusen led by coach Xavi Alonso has confirmed its Bundesliga title.
Postecoglou has made it clear that he has no interest in Kane, who has left Tottenham to win the championship. He added, "Kane has made it clear that he wants to have a new experience and I don't think that's a problem." Kane said that he left not only to win but to experience other things.
Kane missed out on winning the league, but there's still a possibility at UCL. Beat Arsenal in the quarterfinals to advance to the semifinals and now face Real Madrid.

"The 1st Fine Beach Real Golfer Championship" is complete
The final of the 1st Pine Beach Real Golfer Championship, which took place at Pine Beach Golf Links (based in Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do) for two days from the 15th, with a total of 32 teams and 127 participants participating, was a success.
The 1st Pine Beach Real Golfer Championship, held by Pine Beach Golf Links (CEO Heo Myung-ho), attracted the attention of participants from the preliminary round with a course setting similar to that of a professional golf tournament and a total prize money of 100 million won.
Heo Myung-ho, CEO of Pine Beach Golf Links, who hosted the competition, thanked the participants, saying, "Even though it was the first competition, I am very grateful and overwhelmed that all the participants enjoyed participating in the competition."
A total of 32 teams that advanced through the fourth qualifying round held in March competed fiercely for two days in the finals, and as a result, participants Park Eut-deum, Lee Sang-rae, Baek Soo-yeon and Hwang Seung-an won the final round with 19-under 125.
"From the last preliminary round to today's final, we played with excitement and joy, and we want to give our partners the honor of winning," the winning team said in an overwhelming statement. "Despite being an amateur competition, we paid close attention and put a lot of effort into the details for the participants. Thank you to Fine Beach Golf Links for your consideration."
Meanwhile, Pine Beach Golf Links awarded one-year honorary membership to all finalists.
I've been waiting for six weeks... and I'm going to catch Korda
Ko Jin-young, who has been full of energy for six weeks, is hunting her first major title of the season.
Ko Jin-young, ranked sixth in the world, will participate in the LPGA Tour's Chevron Championship (total prize money of 5.2 million dollars) at The Club Carlton Woods (par 72, 6,889 yards) in The Woodland, Texas for four days from the 18th. She will compete with the world's best players for the title. The event will be held as the first major competition of the season on the LPGA Tour since 1983, and has changed its name to Nabisco Dinosaur, Kraft Nabisco Championship, and ANA Inspection.
With a total of 132 entries, including all of the top 30 players in the world rankings, Ko Jin-young won her first career championship in 2024, her 16th career championship, and her first major title in five years since the 2019 Evian Championship. She is aiming to win the title. Ko Jin-young, the longest-running female golfer in the world, has not been added to the winning tally since her second win of the season at the Cognizant Founders Cup in May last year.
Ko Jin-young is full of energy right now. While perfecting her swing and training her physical strength, she skipped all three competitions in the U.S. mainland from mid-March after the Honda LPGA Thailand (tied for 20th) and the HSBC Women's World Championship (tied for 8th) in February. She is fully prepared. Sema Sports Marketing, her management company, said, "She is in good health without any injuries or pain and has excellent shooting skills."
Meanwhile, the LPGA Tour has opened up a world for Nellie Korda of the U.S. After winning the LPGA Drive-On Championship in January, Korda has won 100 percent of her four competitions, including the Fur Hills Seri Pak Se-ri Championship, the Ford Championship, and the T-Mobile Match Play Championship, which took place after a seven-week break. If Korda wins again this time, she will achieve five consecutive LPGA Tour ties, the most after Nancy Lopez of the U.S. in 1978 and Annika Sorenstam of Sweden from 2004 to 2005.
Ko Jin-young, who defeated Korda in the 'Great Battle' in 2021, is the strongest opponent to stop the world's No. 1 race. Although her momentum has slowed down somewhat since 2022 due to injuries such as her wrists and knees, Ko Jin-young is still considered the first contender to win the match against Korda.
Twenty Korean players have challenged, including Kim Hyo-joo, world No. 9, Yang Hee-young, No. 15, Yoo Hae-ran, last year's Rookie of the Year, Chun In-gee, who won Korea's last major title at the 2022 KPMG Women's PGA Championship, and Kim Se-young, Lee Mi-hyang, and Choi Hye-jin, who have been on the rise recently. Each of them is determined to become the star of Korea's first victory this year in their ninth competition of the season.
Veteran Shin Ji-ae, who is active in Japan and Korea, and Bang Shin-sil, the "queen of long-hitting," will play as the top 40 players in the world rankings as of the entry deadline. Shin, who will participate in the 2024 Paris Olympics, will have to perform extraordinarily well to elevate her world ranking from the current 19th to the top 15. For Shin, the Chevron Championship and the U.S. Open, major competitions, are a golden opportunity.
Former world No. 1 Soyeon Ryu, who won the tournament in 2017 and became the "Woman of the Lake" by winning six LPGA titles, will retire. The Chevron Championship, which was held in California, U.S., moved to Texas last year, but the winner's "pond ceremony" tradition continues.
Lilia Vue of the U.S., who has been pushed to second place in the world, is ready to defend the title, while Ko of New Zealand is determined to achieve one win needed to enter the Hall of Fame with a major title.
Yoon Sang-pil leads the KPGA with a new 10-under 61 on the first day of the opening match of the KPG
Yoon Sang-pil, who made his debut on the KPGA Tour in 2019 and did not win for five seasons, shot 10 under par on the first day of the KPGA Tour season opening in 2024, making a splash.
Yoon Sang-pil tied for second with a 10-under 61 in the first round of the DB Insurance Promi Open (total prize money of 700 million won) held at Rabievel CC (par 71) in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province, on the 11th, by making 10 birdies without a bogey. He beat Kim Hong-taek and Kim Chan-woo (7-under 64) by three strokes to take the lead.
Starting from the 10th hole, Yoon reduced his pars by five in the first half with three consecutive birdies in the 11th to 13th holes and birdies in the 15th to 16th holes, and in the second half, he stopped playing until the 4th hole and the 5th to 8th holes after the 1st (par 5) birdie. He added birdies in four consecutive holes to finish the game on the first day. 10-under 61 is a new course record, one stroke higher than Lee Hyung-joon's 9-under 62 recorded in the second round of the competition in 2022.
Yoon, who had a successful first year by tying for fourth in the 2019 Genesis Championship and finishing second in points for the Rookie of the Year, has since achieved his best performance of third place at the Shinhan Donghae Open in 2021, but has never lifted a trophy. He has only made the top 10 in 77 tournaments so far last year, including five in 2017 and 2018.
Yoon Sang-pil said, "Before today's game, I expected to get a good score because of my good shot and putt, but they did better than I expected. If I maintain my shot sense after today, I will be able to perform well in the rest of the round." "Since we debuted until last year, the flow of short games has often stopped, so we focused on improving short games in the off-season."
Yoon garnered birdies at all three par-5 holes on the day. "I used to always try to have two-on shots at par-5 holes, but during last year's Asian Tour, I learned that close-to-green plays are not always advantageous," he said. "Now I try to play stably without being too aggressive." "When I get greedy, I want to reduce my score more, but I try not to overdo it," he said in announcing his plan for the second round.
Jung Jae-hyun and Jeon Joon-hyung followed with a tie for fourth (6-under 65), while seven people, including Lee Jung-hwan and Jang Hee-min, tied for sixth.
Marking his 20th anniversary on the KPGA Tour, Park Sang-hyun, the winner of the 2022 tournament, started with a 4-under 68 and tied for 13th place. Defending champion Go Won-taek shot a 1-under 70 with Cho Woo-young and others.
