APT JEJU 2025 SCHEDULE| OFFICIAL RESULTS | PLAYER LISTS | IMAGES | WINNERS

JEJU, SOUTH KOREA, September 26, 2025APT Jeju 2025 officially got underway with Day 1 of the festival, and it was the Single Day High Roller that set the tone for the action-packed 10 days ahead. This first marquee side event of the series drew a strong 50-entry field, as pros and ambitious amateurs alike clashed for a shot at prestige and prize money.

China’s Zhang Yankai, a seasoned pro with over USD 600,000 in live earnings, had been chasing an APT title awhile. Despite numerous deep runs and three runner-up finishes at prior APT stops, an APT trophy had remained elusive. In Jeju, Zhang finally broke through, securing his long-awaited first APT championship and KRW 40,830,000 (~USD 29,164).

Runner-up honours went to Chen Ronghui, who returned to the APT stage with the highest finish of his career. Chen’s effort brought him his largest lifetime score, a payout of KRW 29,480,000 (~USD 21,057).

The podium was completed by Luo YiHeng, a Chinese amateur who also enjoyed a career-best result by claiming third place for KRW 18,790,000 (~USD 13,421).

Seven runners were paid, with the final table results below:
