May 25th, 2010
The Fortis HKPGA Order of Merit 2010 Leg 2 for the Open Division has finished smoothly on 24/25 May. Fortis has also sponsored a total purse of HKD 70,000 for the 3rd Leg this year. Australian Grant Gibson took the title in the Hong Kong Golf Club with a 70, 69 (total 139) while Dominique Boulet finished second with a score of 69, 71 (total 140).
Ladies champion goes to Vicky Ho Mei Dik, she has been playing very consistently and taking her 2nd championship of the year with an 83 & 77 (total 160).
Out of the 53 competitors, 2 amateurs were by invitation representing Hong Kong Golf Association. Although the temperature was nearly 29 C during the 2-day competition, cool breeze alleviated the competitors.
The well maintained but quick greens of the HKGC made a lot of competitors cautious as a result 3-4 putts were not uncommon. Wong Woon Man and Jovick Lee, leaders on the first day (67) can only sigh being unable to sink putts.
Grant Gibson the champion commented, "It was not easy, to say the least, to conquer the notorious tough greens of the New Course, let alone the intimidating pin placements. My success was mostly due to putting confidently and sinking long putts resulted in an average of 2 birdies a day".
