Despite Cold Weather, Players Showed Strong Sportsmanship
Leg 1 of HKPGA Senior Division was held at the Yinli Foreign Investors Golf Club on 10-11 February 2014. Strong player MK Tang won over SW Tang after the third play-off hole and got his first win in the year.
After a warm Lunar New Year holiday, the temperature dropped sharply to below 10 degree over the weekend. And the sky was grey throughout the two-day event. Yet, over 30 players competed in the Leg 1 event. At the beginning of the Year of Horse, players greeted each other. During the dinner gathering, Mr Chi Leung, Director of the Yinli Foreign Investors Golf Club stopped by to greet members of HKPGA and sent his best wishes to all players. To recognize the support of the Club to HKPGA over the years, Mr Daniel Liu, Chairman of HKPGA together with Mr KP Siu, Senior Captain and Mr MK Tang, Open Division Captain presented a souvenir to Mr Leung.
Back to the first round, despite the cold weather, players played seriously during the round and hoped to get good result. There were a few moments of rain during the round which added some degree of difficulties in playing. However, the result was much better than expected. The leaders of day one including SW Tang (73), MK Tang (74), Danny Kan (74) and William Fung (75) were only a few strokes difference. After the first round, players commented that other than the cold weather that had affected the players’ physical performance, the ever changing putting greens were even more difficult to handle. To hole out, the putting line and power of putting stroke had to be very precise. There were many moments that the ball skipped the hole at the very last roll!
On the second day, the first tee started early in the morning and the weather was colder than the first round; yet the keen competition went on! SW Tang, MK Tang and Danny Kan of the leading group put up a good show. The three players were tied after 16 holes after counting the result of day one. On the 17th hole, Danny Kan drove his ball to the right side fringe of the fairway and so unfortunate to be covered by roots of trees and leaves. He ended up with a double bogey on the hole. The chance for him to win turned slim. After 36 holes, SW Tang (73, 73) and MK Tang (74, 72) both tied at 146 were required to play sudden death play-off. The two players demonstrated very high spirit and desire to win. It was after three sudden death play-off holes that MK Tang won by a birdie at last. SW Tang lost in a glorious battle!
For the trainee Division, Robert Tou won by a total of 160 (80, 80). In addition, Wilson Chan, despite only a fair performance in day one, came back strongly in day two with a finishing round of 76. With this round, he got five qualified round for the player’s ability test. Upon completing the class room training and passing the examination, he could apply to become a full member of HKPGA. Congratulations to both!
