Upon arriving home in South Korea, Sangmoon Bae said Wednesday that he will meet later this week with authorities and is still unsure when he must begin his mandatory military service.
“I will go through appropriate steps before joining the military, and I will make sure everything goes smoothly,” he said, according to the Yonhap News Agency. “But I don’t know what my precise schedule will be like ahead of the Presidents Cup, and so I can’t really tell you at this point what will happen. It’s not as though I can just pick a date I want and enter the armed forces.
