The last leg of this year for the HKPGA Open and Ladies Divisions were held on the 14th and 15th of July 2014 at the Discovery Bay Golf Club. While the Order of Merit for this year will come to an end soon, the competition is keen that who will be crowned for the Open and the Ladies Division need to wait until after the HKPGA Championship.
With perfect course condition and fine weather, a total of 46 players including three elite amateurs competed in the two-day event.
The two-day event was held at Jade and Diamond Courses with a course length of 6593 yards and par 71. It was not a very long course length but with a layout along hillside and narrow and steep landing spots which added somewhat difficulties to the players. On the first day, with intermittent steaming sun and heavy shower, it was sure a test of ability for the players. Yet the result was encouraging that most of the players finished the first round in the 70’s. Leg Three winner, James Stewart, continued his superb performance and led the rest by 1 stroke with a 70 (-1) finished the day. Wilson Choy, former Asian Tour Player, and M K Tang, outstanding player of the Senior Division, finished at par, just 1 stroke behind James. C H Jang held the fourth place with a 72. Timothy Tang, Ducky Tang, James Wong, Kelvin Li, Nathan Goulding and Dominique Boulet were at 73, tying at the sixth place.
For the Ladies Division, while Leg Three Winner Vicki Ho did not play this time, strong contender Barbara Wong finished the first round at 72 (+1). Elite amateur player, Isabella Leung finished at 74 (+3) and another hot pick, Jannet Sheng followed closely at the third place.
On the final day, the weather was stable and fine. The course was at top condition. While James Stewart, M K Tang and Wilson Choy were in the final group, Timothy Tang, Ducky Tang and C H Jang were all in contention. Wilson Choy finished the front nine with just 1 stroke over while James Stewart enlarged the leading margin by a 34 (-1) with a total of 2 strokes lead. Timothy Tang with a heart for winning and chasing hard just finished the front nine at even par.
The back nine was played at the Diamond Course. When everything seemed to be steady, the “wind” changed. All James Stewart wished was to play steadily till the end and won the match. Yet Timothy Tang seemed to have something in mind. He did not give any concession. The eagle he got at hole-13 and the following three birdies crowned him the winner of the Leg. Timothy Tang finished the two rounds at 139, 3 under par and won over James Stewart who finally finished the two rounds at 142. What a magnificent came back of Timothy Tang!
Wilson Choy got over the devastating result on the final day in the Third Leg of 2012 and played steadily this time to get himself a third place (71, 73 – 144).
For the Ladies Division, the elite amateur player Isabella Leung seemed to have lost her touch of the first round. Barbara Wong took the chance to enlarge her lead and finished the final round at 74 and won the match at a total of 146. This is her second win after the winning of the First Leg at Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course.
