Kim Joo-hyung won the gold medal in men's golf at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games.

Kim took the men's individual title on the 3rd at the East Course of Kasugai Country Club in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. In the final round of the par-70 course, he carded a 6-under 64 with one eagle, five birdies and one bogey, finishing at 18-under 262 to win by three strokes over the group tied for second.

It is the first Asian Games individual title for South Korean men's golf in 16 years, since Kim Meen-whee won at the 2010 Guangzhou Games.

Led by Kim's performance, South Korea also finished second in the team event at a combined 26-under 534, behind China at 28-under 532. Teammates Moon Do-yeop and Kim Seong-hyeon took the silver medal as a result. Team standings are determined by the combined scores of each country's two best performers.
