Faldo To Host Record Field At Asia Grand Final
Shenzhen, China, 7 March 2013 - The largest-ever field for a Faldo Series Asia Grand Final will join Sir Nick Faldo at Mission Hills Golf Club in China on March 13-15. A total of 84 golfers from 17 countries will compete for the 2013 title.
“We have an exciting week planned as we aim to give opportunity to golfers both on and off the course,” said the six-time Major winner. “My team and I look forward to spending time with competitors, sponsors and younger children from the local community as we celebrate another season of growth for the Faldo Series in Asia and across the globe.”
“We share Sir Nick’s passion for growing golf and welcome him back to Mission Hills,” added Tenniel Chu, Vice Chairman of Mission Hills Group. “We were proud to become a founding partner of the Faldo Series Asia in 2006 and it is encouraging to see a record number of finalists benefiting from the unique Grand Final experience for the seventh consecutive year.”
17 competitors will have one eye on the Mission Hills Trophy, awarded to the highest-placed Chinese golfer together with an invitation to the 2013 Europe Grand Final. Last year’s inaugural winner, 14-year-old prodigy Guan Tianlang from Guangzhou recently won the Asia Pacific Amateur Championship to qualify for the 2013 US Masters Tournament.
Reigning Faldo Series Europe Champion Jack Singh-Brar will be hoping to become only the second person to win both titles since Masamichi Ito of Japan in 2010. Ito won his third Faldo Series crown at Mission Hills last year but has since turned professional so will not defend. 16-year-old Englishman Singh-Brar is one of five qualifiers from the 2012 Europe Grand Final.
The World Amateur Golf Ranking event will see golfers aged 12 to 22 compete over three rounds on the Faldo Course in Shenzhen. Off the course they will spend time with Faldo, his personal coach Keith Wood and experts from Edel Golf and TrackMan.
With the field at Mission Hills divided into five age-categories, three boys and two girls will each receive a trophy and an exemption into the seventeenth Europe Grand Final later this year. The leading boy and girl will also be invited to play in a professional Tour event and the title of Faldo Series Asia Champion will go to the player with the lowest gross score, regardless of age or gender.
Indonesia will be represented in the boys divisions by Fahmi Reza (Boys U21), Jordan Irawan (Boys U18) and Kevin Akbar (Boys U16), and in the girls division by Ika Woro Palupi (Girls U21) and Victoria Chandra (Girls U16).
Established in 1996, 40 Faldo Series tournaments now take place in 30 countries worldwide with more than 7,000 golfers participating each year. Past winners include current world number ones Rory McIlroy and Yani Tseng.
In September 2013, Faldo will begin taking students at a full-time residential academy for education and golf development in America. The first ever Faldo Series Academy in Casa Grande, Arizona is also home to the Faldo Series USA and marks the next significant step in the programme’s history.
The 2012/2013 Faldo Series Asia schedule featured a record 18 tournaments in 15 countries, including four in mainland China and others in The Philippines, Chinese Taipei, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Singapore, Brunei, Cambodia, India, Nepal, Malaysia, Japan, Pakistan, Indonesia and Thailand.
The seventh Faldo Series Asia Grand Final is supported by major partners ISPS, Mission Hills and The R&A. It is endorsed by the Asian Tour, the Asia Pacific Golf Federation and the Guangdong Golf Association.

Cullen Looking For Repeat Win At Emeralda
JAKARTA, March 7 - He may not be the defending champion, but Australian Nick Cullen will still be a hot favorite when the Enjoy Jakarta Indonesia PGA Championship tees off at Emeralda Golf Club later this month.
The pristine course was the scene of Cullen's breakthrough professional victory last year at the Indonesia Open, and the 27-year old is relishing a return to happy hunting ground -- albeit for a different tournament.
"It's almost a year since I won in Indonesia and I've had some good finishes since, but not good enough," said Cullen.
"My goal for this year is to win again. My ball striking is great so if I can get the putter working I won't be far away."
To win, Cullen will have to take on one of the strongest Asia-Pacific fields ever assembled as the tournament is co-sanctioned by OneAsia and the Japan Golf Tour Organisation and includes over three dozen champions boasting more than 200 titles between them.
Fellow Australian Andre Stolz will be defending his title from 2011, while Indian ace Jeev Milkha Singh is a star attraction making his debut in a OneAsia event.
"It's great," Cullen said of the burgeoning relationship between OneAsia and the JGTO.
Last year's Indonesia Open was the first collaboration between the two bodies, but that partnership is taken to a new level with the Thailand Open (March 14-17) and Enjoy Jakarta Indonesia PGA Championship (March 28 - 31) opening both seasons -- with earnings from the U.S. $1 million tournaments to count towards both Orders of Merit.
A win by a OneAsia player at either event would give them full status in Japan.
"It's really exciting to have the opportunity to gain status on a tour as big as the JGTO," said Cullen. "I played three events there last year and loved every minute of it. I would be ecstatic if I could play there full time."
Cullen, a left-hander from Adelaide, got last year off to a flying start by qualifying for The Open Championship (he missed the cut by a stroke) before winning at Emeralda by a shot from New Zealander David Smail.
He lost his way a bit in mid-season, but found some form at the brutally tough Emirates Australian Open for a joint 18th finish to end up fifth on the OneAsia Order of Merit with earnings of nearly U.S. $210,000.
"I did take a break over Christmas -- I went to Canada for 10 days," said Cullen, an avid NFL fan who supports the Atlanta Falcons.
"But since I got back its been all go -- working on the game and playing Australian events."
Cullen, who has been troubled by back problems in the past, is also paying more attention to his conditioning this year.
"I started working with a new trainer to get stronger and my body more balanced while helping my back issues," he said.
"It's been great so far -- feeling stronger on and off the course. Everything else is pretty much the same, but I've been doing a little more on the bio-mechanics side which has been good."
His career has also been given a boost by being named this week in Golf Australia's Rookie Professional Squad -- a national initiative that gives wide-ranging support to select individuals.
"At the moment I'm just focusing on playing as good as I can, and if I play well the rest will follow," said Cullen.

Can Hie Go One Better In Indonesia?
JAKARTA, March 5 - Rory Hie is hoping an upgrade in clubs will help turn his obvious potential into his first victory on OneAsia -- and where better to start than at home at the Enjoy Jakarta Indonesia PGA Championship later this month.
Hie has twice come close to winning a OneAsia million-dollar tournament -- both times in Indonesia -- and he clearly thrives in the steamy tropical conditions in front of a home crowd.
"I am very excited about my equipment this year with the new R1 driver and Rocketbladez irons which are going to help me with my mis-hits," said Hie.
"I also look forward to gaining distance with the new Lethal ball."
Hie, however, knows more than anyone that the secret to winning is not just about the latest equipment, but also improving technique and getting in shape both physically and mentally.
"Technique-wise I am going to be more consistent with how I approach each event," said the 24-year-old, runner-up to Andre Stolz the last time the Indonesia PGA Championship was held in 2011.
That year he also finished joint-runner up to Thaworn Wiratchant at the Enjoy Jakarta Indonesia Open.
"I feel that I am evolving as a player and I am far better than I was in 2011," said Hie, one of the world's top amateurs when he attended the University of Southern California and arguably the best player ever to emerge from Indonesia.
Asked what goals he has set himself for 2013, and the answer is simple: "To win!".
"My putter was cold all last season," he said. "I figured out a good way to putt during the off season and won by nine at a local event. I hope to bring that out this year."
With the Enjoy Jakarta Indonesia PGA Championship played at Emeralda Golf Club this year -- where Hie plays most of his golf when not on tour -- there will be extra pressure on the young man to succeed.
"I think it's fun to play at home because there will be a lot of support, and it helps me focus when people pay attention to what I do."
Hie has some status on the Asian Tour this year via Q-School, but he intends to focus on the big money at OneAsia's million-dollar tournaments in search of that elusive breakthrough.
"I will play a mixed schedule this year," he said.
"I will try to better my ranking on the Order of Merit from 12th last year and try to break into the top 10 on OneAsia. I think the key is to have a big week and really contend, and I will be up there."
While Hie has his sights set on the Enjoy Jakarta Indonesia PGA Championship from March 28 - 31, his first event on OneAsia this year will be the Thailand Open from March 14 - 17.
