Tim Tang struggled scoring 78-79-82 but then came back with an excellent sub-par 71 on the last day. He has not played tournaments for a long time and then to play in a big event on a very tough course was a big ask. But he prepared well for the event, practised hard and was an active and supportive team member throughout the week and it was great to see him have this crucial round for the team on the last day.

Matthew played some good golf and had the best score for the HK team on day 2 with 71, and another 71 on the final day with a birdie-birdie finish. I believe Matthew can do well and over the last 18 months, his World Ranking has gone from approximate 1,000 to currently in the 600s.

For the Ladies team, Michelle Cheung scored 76-77-84-73, Isabella Leung 79-77-79-74, Virginie Ding 83-76-83-78 and Kitty Tam 84-77-79-83.

A big thank you to Team Captain Mr Ning Li and assistant Mrs Betty Ng, who both did an excellent job throughout the week.
