"There was plenty to be pleased about," he said, "and all four of our guys did well throughout the event. Once again we got off to a good start but couldn't sustain the momentum. We had a pretty tough draw – we had early morning tee times each day, which was a bit unusual – but for our first Asian Games, it was a good effort. Jason played steady and had that excellent round, but overall there's still a few things we need to work on."
In the women's event the Hong Kong team of Tiffany Chan, Stephanie Ho and Michelle Cheung finished ahead of India in eighth place.
Korea once again showed their remarkable prowess by emerging with a 10-shot win over China in second.
Although the three teenagers weren't at their very best, coach Schadewitz was impressed with Cheung's finish. The 15-year-old fired back-to-back 78s over what proved to be a serious test of golf.
"Michelle is one of our younger players who is coming through and I'm really happy with the way she fought back over the final couple of rounds," said Schadewitz. "There aren't many people who can knock it past her and this event has been a great learning experience for her." - A.J.
