SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's Bae Sang-moon arrived home on Wednesday ahead of next week's Presidents Cup and the golfer told reporters he was keen to play a big role in the event before he downs clubs and picks up a rifle to begin mandatory military service.

The 29-year-old lost a legal battle earlier this year to defer his conscription after he was charged with violating South Korea's military service regulations.
