“We’d like to extend our warmest congratulations to Ormsby and the many other competitors who poured their hearts onto the greens. It’s also my privilege to thank the Hong Kong Golf Club and the Hong Kong Golf Association for hosting this exceptional international tournament, which is a curtain raiser for the Asian Golf Tour,” said Dr Y.
