Showing True Olympic Spirit

Golden girl Tiffany Chan, one of only three amateur golfers to qualify for Rio 2016, put in a performance that made Hong Kong proud

Tiffany received a rousing reception from the galleries on the first tee in round one

Chan, who won the Hong Kong Ladies Open in June to catapult her into Olympic reckoning, said: “It’s been an unbelievable week, and to finish with my best round of the event on the last day was very satisfying. My goal was to finish in the top-40, so I’m very happy to have been able to achieve that.

“I grew in confidence as the tournament went on and the experience has been one I’ll never forget - playing on the same stage as the world’s best players, in front of so many fans, has been simply amazing.

“I’m going to be trying my hardest to make sure I get to play in the Olympics again, hopefully in Tokyo in 2020.”
