Normally there are three OSL seasons per year, usually each with a different sponsor.
The Shinhan Bank sponsored the last OSL of 2005. They were apparently very satisfied with the publicity they got through sponsoring it and decided to sponsor all three OSL seasons in 2006 (which are hence named Shinhan 1, Shinhan 2, Shinhan 3, while the one they sponsored in 2005 is simply called Shinhan OSL 2005). The final of the Shinhan 3 OSL was obviously in February 2007, but it belonged to the last season of 2006, just for clarification.
Anyway, Shinhan wanted to add something more special to it (they decided this in the beginning already) -> the Shinhan Masters. The Shinhan Masters features 4 players: the 3 winners of the 3 Shinhan OSL Seasons from 2006 (Casy for winning Shinhan 1, Nada for winning Shinhan 2 and Savior for winning Shinhan 3), as well as a fourth player who was to be determined out of 8 players (among those the other runner-ups of the 3 Shinhan seasons).
Onto the results!
