In the Esprito Santo Trophy, the women's equivalent championship held the week before,
Hong Kong placed 41st of the 52 participating countries. Stephanie Ho found the conditions to her liking as she recorded a solid 13-over-par effort over the four rounds, while fellow teammates Tiffany Chan and Michelle Cheung, who was making her debut at the event, also played well from tee to green, but struggled a little on the firm greens.

"The girls – who again made up one of the youngest teams in the competition – did well, especially Stephanie who was solid throughout," said Schadewitz.

It helped with her confidence going into the Asian Games. – A.J.
