HKPGA Open Division
Order Of Merit 2013 Leg 3

The third leg of HKPGA Open Division Order of Merit continued on the 5th and 6th of August at the Hong Kong Golf Club.  The second leg of HKPGA Ladies Division Order of Merit was also held on the same dates.  James Stewart was on fire and he won back to back and again with a two-stroke lead following the second leg just held a week ago. 

Not only James was hot, the weather was indeed with a burning sensation!  The temperature was at 35 degree Celsius and higher throughout the course of playing.

Difficult and Challenging

Unlike most of the professional competitions, this time the two-day event held at two different courses at Fanling with day one at Old Course with the course length of 6246 and day two at Eden with the course length of 6128.  The players needed to have strong playing skills to tackle the different course layouts of the two courses. 

Open Division Winner - James Stewart

James, with the Hong Kong Permanent Resident status was excited about winning this leg.  With the trophy in his hand, James said, “I am so happy.  I managed and played very well in these two legs.  I still have a heart to play in competitive games.  Being a full member of HKPGA, I will play with every effort and try to play well in each HKPGA’s event.”

Hong Kong Golf Club is the home course for James.  Being familiar with the courses, unlike most of other players, he did not use golf cart on the second day.  James explained, “Since the golf cart could go to the fairway in the Old Course, I therefore used it for saving energy.  On the second day, without access to the fairway by golf cart, I chose to use a caddy instead.  In this way, I concentrated in my game and no need to take care of the golf cart!” 

The third leg was held in high competitive atmosphere.  Three players including Jimmy Ko (Champion of Order of Merit for 2011), Tim Tang (Champion of Order of Merit for 2012 and Jovik Lee were all at total stroke of 143, tied at third place.  For second place, MK Tang, senior player, still played strongly with incredible physique, finished at 142 with 70 on the first day and 72 on the second day. 

Other players like winner of the first leg, James Wong, finished at 144 (71 and 73) ranked sixth.  Tour player, LT Liu, played two rounds at 76 and 74 respectively, tied tenth with a total of 150.  Also, with the amateur status and an exception to play in the third leg, Ollie Roberts, HKGA, finished the two-day event at 146, ranked seventh.  He may well be another rising star in the days ahead!

Ladies Division Winner: Vicki Ho

Maybe of the weather, there was not too many ladies joined the second leg of the Ladies Division this time.  Yet, those who joined played with superb ability.  Ladies can be tough when the tough gets tougher!  There were a few from the Open Division withdrew from the event due to the hot weather.  Yet all ladies stood till last!  On the final day, Vicki Ho and Janet Shang (Champion of Ladies Division 2012) like playing in a match play.  It was until the last hole that Vicki won over Janet by one stroke and became the winner.

Vicki was excited and said, “To win again is wonderful!”  The last win of Vicki traced back to 2010.  Vicki further said, “With most of the time is devoted in teaching golf, it is pity that not much time can be used for practicing and training. Coupled with lacking of training grounds in Hong Kong, I can only practice a bit in between teaching lessons.”  Vicki got her full member of HKPGA through the training programme of the HKPGA.  She was one of the trainees of the first batch of lady trainees.  She teaches golf at the Asian Golf Driving Range in Cheung Sha Wan and Nine Eagles in Tung Chung.  She feels that playing golf has brought her many friends and she enjoys playing golf with friends that share the same interest.  The circle of golfing is like a big family to her.
