Congratulations - HSBC Golf Challenge 2007 Champion



Justin Tang Golf wishes to extend a hearty congratulation to one of its students, Lim Chee Chein.

The 51 year young systems engineer who plays off 12.2 bested a stellar field at the HSBC Golf Challenge 2007 with a gross score of 3-over par 75 under the Stableford Individual Double Perioa system.

Said the champion: "I blew my first hole when I drove into the trees on the right and three-putted for a triple bogey, I thought it was all over."

Besides winning an all-expenses-paid trip for two to watch golfing superstars such as Vijay Singh, Sergio Garcia et al at the HSBC Champions Tournament in Shanghai from 8 to 11 Nov, he also wins a special lesson package from Justin Tang Golf.

In the run-up to his victory, Lim had been working on his impact alignments and the plane of his swing. His success proves that age is not a barrier in a sport where it is widely held that age is a hurdle.

Next on his list of improvements to make is his putting despite having 5 birdies in a round where his putter "caught fire". It is this dedication to improvement that duly netted Lim the title of HSBC Golf Challenge Champion 2007.
