Korea sport season starts with baseball

South Korea's professional sport returned to action with the opening of a new baseball season Tuesday, while football and golf will soon follow suit.

Friday will see the delayed start of football's K-League, and next week some of golf's leading women players will tee up in a domestic tournament as South Korea becomes a rare hotspot for live sport.

Fans were not allowed in for any of Tuesday's five opening baseball matches at the Munhak Baseball Stadium in Incheon.
