SIDDIKUR (BAN) – FIRST ROUND 66 (-6)
I’m very happy. I played very well in the beginning. I got seven birdies with one bogey so I’m really happy with the round. I’m very confident and my game is good. If I can play my game, I’m quite confident I’ll be able to qualify for the Open Championship.
There are no excuses for me (two years ago). I just didn’t play well after shooting a 66 on the first day. I was so excited but unfortunately I couldn’t play well in the next day. I won’t repeat the same mistakes and I’m looking forward to it.
I didn’t put my score on the last hole so I was disqualified. I was actually three-over-par for the day.
QUINCY QUEK (SIN) – FIRST ROUND 67 (-5)
I got myself into a good position. I was three-under after four holes. I was hitting it good and giving myself chances. It got a bit windy on the back nine but other than the double bogey on the last, my round is pretty solid. I’m happy to be five-under with a double bogey!
In two-day events, you have to make as many birdies as you can. I just want to enjoy my round out there on this magnificent course. I’m up there and there’s a shot to be in the top-four. I guess my focus tomorrow is to enjoy the round and put in a low number.
I snapped my tee shot on the ninth hole. It was a funny swing and my ball landed in the water. Other than that, the rest of the day has been quite solid. I’m happy with the way I’m playing.

LAM ZHIQUN (SIN) – FIRST ROUND 67 (-5)
I’m not complaining with a five-under. I played pretty solid. I missed a few greens but managed to get up-and-downs. You have to pretty much go out there and shoot your lights out because it is a two-day qualifier. This is the lowest score I’ve shot on this golf course. Mardan (Mamat) and Lam (Chih Bing) told me about their experiences of playing in The Open. It will be good if I have memories of my own.
HU MU (CHN) – FIRST ROUND 67 (-5)
I played really well. It is a long and tough course. The condition of the golf course is very nice. I was in good form in Myanmar (Zaykabar Myanmar Open) but my score wasn’t good. Today my score was good except for the little blemish on the last hole, otherwise it would have been a really good round. I’m not thinking too far ahead.
SCOTT BARR (AUS) – FIRST ROUND 67 (-5)
I played pretty well with eight birdies and one eagle. This is a sort of golf course which you can into trouble and you can get severely punished. I’m happy and hopefully I can hold it together. I holed a nine iron on the fifth which was a good shot. It was about 123 yards into the wind, one bounce and boom it was inside the hole. I started to hit the ball pretty well at the start and putted pretty good. I just had a couple of soft mistakes. You can get in big trouble without doing much mistakes here.
PAN CHENG-TSUNG (TPE) – FIRST ROUND 68 (-4)
My game was fine. I drive the ball good and found pretty much every fairway. I put myself in position of making birdies. I played here at the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship last year and finished second here.
Yes, I’m feeling the pressure because this qualifier is tough and competitive. You might miss by one-shot and that just adds to the pressure. I played in the US Open two years ago.

Chonburi, Thailand, February 27: Thai rising star Arnond Vongvanij is eager to join countryman Thaworn Wiratchant and Thongchai Jaidee at the 2013 Open Championship in July as he aims to claim one of the four tickets available at the International Final Qualifying – Asia starting Thursday.
The pint-sized Arnond missed out by one shot to join in the play-off for the final berth last year and hopes to make amends in the two-day qualifying played at the immaculate Amata Spring Country Club, which is also his home course.
Among other hopefuls vying to play in the year’s third Major at Muirfield from July 18 to 21 include Indians Gaganjeet Bhullar and Anirban Lahiri, who won last year’s qualifier, Prom Meesawat and Kiradech Aphibarnrat of Thailand, Siddikur of Bangladesh and Miguel Tabuena of the Philippines.

Chinese amateur Guan Tianlang, winner of the 2012 Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship at the Amata Spring, will also feature in the qualifier with Wu Ashun and compatriot Hu Mu.
Masanori Kobayashi, who finished fourth on the 2012 Asian Tour Order of Merit, is part of a strong Japanese contingent which include two-time Asia-Pacific Amateur Champion, Hideki Matsuyama, who became the first Japanese amateur to play in the Masters Tournament in 2011, Kodai Ichihara, who qualified for the IFQ-Asia last year and Yuta Ikeda, who last played in The Open in 2011.
Thaworn qualified for The Open Championship courtesy of winning the Asian Tour Order of Merit in 2012 while Thongchai Jaidee qualified by finishing in the top 30 in last year’s Race to Dubai.
Arnond’s career has been on the rise since joining the Asian Tour last year. In his rookie season, he claimed four top-10s including one win at the King’s Cup on home soil. He hopes to add a Major appearance to his fledging career but is wary of the strong challengers in the 78-man field.
“It is always exciting to get the chance to qualify for the Open Championship. I’m going to go in the qualifier with a thought that I got nothing to lose. I’m going to try and play well and have fun,” said the 24-year-old.
“It would be an honour to play in The Open Championship because it is the oldest Major Championship in the world. The qualifier is only two rounds so that makes things a lot harder than a four-round tournament,” said Arnond.
Siddikur is the man of many firsts. He was the first player from his country to play and win on the Asian Tour and he is now eyeing to be the first Bangladeshi to roam the fairways at The Open Championship.
“If I do qualify, the popularity of golf in Bangladesh will go to an even higher standard. The Amata Spring course is quite long but I’ve shot a low number there before. I’m quite confident of making it this time,” said Siddikur.
Lahiri is determined to make a swift return to the Open Championship after making his debut last season where he finished tied 31st highlighted by a third round ace.
“I think it was a breakthrough debut for me to finish as the top Asian in the Open Championship last year. Playing with the best in the game and finishing ahead of a lot of big names gave me tremendous confidence in my ability. I also gained valuable experience of playing in severe conditions on links golf courses, something that’s not common in Asia,” said the Indian.
Filipino Tabuena, 18, hopes to make a successful debut at the IFQ-Asia, where he is among a talented young cast of hopefuls vying to etch their names among the stars of golf.

“I know it is not a course for me because it is long but anything can happen. How would an 18 year old feel if I qualify? It would mean the world to me because it will be my first Major,” said Tabuena.
Having qualified for the Masters Tournament in April, Chinese prodigy Guan is eyeing for a second Major appearance in his budding career.
“I have played at some professional golf tournaments before and it is always great to play with the professional golfers. I can learn so much from them and the experience of playing at the professional events. So I am looking forward to the IFQ-Asia,” said Guan.
He gained worldwide coverage when he won the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship last year to become the youngest player to play in the Masters Tournament. Despite the limelight, his feet remain firmly grounded.
“I still live a normal life – go to school, practice golf and spend time with family and friends. But of course, more and more people know me and lots of media are interested in me. I am grateful for all the changes. With the increasing attention and support, I am getting more confident with myself as well as accomplishing my dream in future one day,” said Guan.

Kuala Lumpur, February 27: M. Sasidaran, Kemarol Baharin, Mohd Hanafiah Mohd Jamil and P. Gunasegaran have qualified for the US$2.75 million Maybank Malaysian Open next month.
Sasidaran, Kemarol, Mohd Hanafiah and Gunasegaran, who lost in a play-off in the 1994 Malaysian Open, totalled 142, 144, 146 and 146 respectively to qualify for the event sanctioned by the Asian Tour and European Tour from March 21 to 24.
The quartet join Maybank ambassadors Danny Chia and Shaaban Hussin and Akhmal Tarmizee, Nicholas Fung, Sukree Othman, R. Nachimuthu, Airil Rizman, Rashid Ismail, S. Murthy, S. Siva Chandhran, Azman Basharuddin and Kenneth De Silva.
Sasidaran, who won the qualifier said, “Maybank Malaysian Open is a great avenue to gain experience. I have had good memories at the event, Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club is a favourite course of mine. It’s important for me to maintain my confidence so that I can give my best performance.”
President of the Malaysian Golf Association (MGA) Admiral (R) Tan Sri Dato’ Setia Mohd Anwar Mohd Nor congratulated the winners and said, “The Maybank Malaysian Open is the avenue for our local professionals to gather the experience and skills to go further in their career. I am positive that these winners will make full use of this invaluable opportunity”.
Chief Marketing Officer of Maybank Mohamed Adam praised all the participants for their outstanding game and said “during this 2-day event, we have seen many talents waiting to emerge and represent Malaysia in the international arena. The enthusiasm and commitment shown by these golfers is a positive sign that the effort Maybank has put in towards golf development in Malaysia since 2006 is bearing fruit”.

Chiangmai, Thailand, February 26: Japanese stars Tetsuji Hiratsuka, Kenichi Kuboya and last season’s Asian Tour Rookie of the Year Masanori Kobayashi have signed up for the inaugural US$750,000 Chiangmai Golf Classic presented by PTT next month.
The talented trio will join Asian history-maker Y.E. Yang of Korea and Thai legend Thongchai Jaidee in the Asian Tour’s newest tournament which will be held at the impressive Alpine Golf Resort-Chiangmai from March 28 to 31, 2013.
The Chiangmai Golf Classic is supported by PTT Group Company Limited, one of the largest corporations in Thailand, while other premier sponsors include PTT Public Company Ltd, Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand, Advanced Info Service Plc, Siam Commercial Bank PCL, Tourism Authority of Thailand, Provincial Government of Chiangmai, Chiangmai Provincial Administrative Organisation, CAT Telecom Public Company Ltd, TOT Public Company Ltd, Thai Airways International Public Company Ltd, Thai Beverage Public Company Limited, Samart I-mobile PCL , Loxley Wireless Co Ltd, Forth Corporation Public Company Ltd, J.R.W Utility Plc, Standard Tour Co Ltd, Advanced Information Technology Public Company Ltd, Fenix Apparel and Accessories Co Ltd and Sports Authority of Thailand.

The 41-year-old Hiratsuka, who is a six-time winner in Japan, is one of the most successful Japanese players on the Asian Tour, which will be celebrating its 10th season throughout 2013. After earning his Tour card from Qualifying School in 2009, the powerful Japanese ace went on to win three tournaments in 2010 to finish third on the Order of Merit and subsequently claimed a fourth title on the region’s premier Tour in 2011.
A neck injury slowed down his charge last season but Hiratsuka is all geared up for another successful campaign ahead and will be targeting the Chiangmai Golf Classic, which is a full-field Asian Tour tournament, as his two wins in Asia were achieved at the Queen’s Cup and Black Mountain Masters in Thailand three years ago.
“I’m very comfortable playing in Thailand and I’m looking forward to the Chiangmai Golf Classic. I was struggling with a neck injury last year but it has become a lot better now, so I hope to start playing well again in 2013,” said Hiratsuka, who finished 96th on the rankings last season.
Kobayashi produced a memorable rookie season on the Asian Tour. After earning his card from Qualifying School, he won the Asia Pacific Panasonic Open, jointly sanctioned with the Japan Golf Tour, on home soil and added two other top-10s to finish fourth on the Order of Merit.
He signed up for the Asian Tour after watching Hiratsuka achieve success in the region and is now looking forward to adding a second career title at the Chiangmai Golf Classic.
“I’ve enjoyed travelling to different countries in Asia last year. I’ve learned a lot, especially playing with the top players which was very good experience for me,” said Kobayashi.
“My goal this season is to win one title on the Asian Tour and another title in Japan. I’m looking forward to visiting Chiangmai for the first time.”
Kuboya holds six Tour victories in Japan, enjoying his biggest career victory when he triumphed in the Japan Open last season. The 40-year-old has also plied his trade on the Asian Tour in the past few seasons.
The Chiangmai Golf Classic presented by PTT is primed to extensively promote Chiangmai, which is located in northern Thailand, as a top golfing and tourist destination through the four days of live broadcasts on the Asian Tour’s global television platform, which reaches over 200 countries and 650 million homes.
The Chiangmai Golf Classic will be a 72-hole strokeplay tournament showcasing 144 players with the leading 99 Asian Tour players featuring in the elite field alongside 10 players from the top-200 of the Official World Golf Ranking, 20 players from Thailand and 15 sponsor’s invitations.
The Alpine Golf Resort-Chiangmai, designed by Ron M. Garl, is located in a valley between mountain ranges in the heart of the San Kampaeng natural forests and boasts of natural beauty.

Kuala Lumpur, February 26: Malaysia’s Kemarol Baharin led the way on the first day of the Maybank Malaysian Open – National Qualifier, shooting a two-under-par 70 at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club on Tuesday.
A total of 51 Malaysian players are fighting for four coveted spots at the Maybank Malaysian Open, which will be held next month.
M. Sasidaran shot a 71 while Mohd Hanafiah Mohd Jamil carded a 73 to stay in the chase for a top-four finish.
The 37-year-old Sasidaran is no stranger to the Maybank Malaysian Open as he has taken part in the prestigious event several times, either by automatic entry or through the National Qualifier.
Those who qualified will join Danny Chia, a Maybank Golf Ambassador, who automatically qualified based on his impressive Asian Tour Order of Merit ranking. Other professionals who have been given direct entry under Maybank’s nominates are Maybank Golf Ambassador Shaaban Hussin, 2012 Professional Golf of Malaysia (PGM) – Maybank Tour Players Champion Akhmal Tarmizee and GlobalOne’s nominated golfers Md Rashid Ismail, S. Murthy, S. Sivachandhran, Azman Basharuddin and Kenneth De Silva.
Winning the coveted slot in the Maybank Malaysian Open would also grant the golfers the valuable experience of playing in a tournament with Luke Donald who is making his debut, former Masters Tournament champion Charl Schwartzel, 2011 champion Matteo Manassero and three-time Major champion Padraig Harrington.

Singapore, February 25: Sri Lanka’s Mithun Perera is confident that his second-placed finish at the Zaykabar Myanmar Open presented by Alpine last week will serve as a barometer of his performance for the season.
The Sri Lankan got his 2013 Asian Tour season off to a flying start when he secured his best-ever result by finishing second, a single shot behind winner Chawalit Plaphol of Thailand.
It could even have been a historical feat for Mithun had Chawalit not birdied his last two holes to win his fourth Asian Tour title at the Royal Mingalardon Golf and Country Club.
Mithun would then become the first Sri Lankan to win on the Asian Tour at the US$300,000 event, which is the curtain raiser for the 10th Asian Tour season.
“All you need is one good week to turn your life around. I feel my time is coming soon. I try my best in every tournament and I think the win is not far away,” said Mithun.
“I’m sure my father and my country are proud of me. This week, I flew the Sri Lankan flag high. There’s no disappointment for me,” added the 26-year-old.
After finishing 50th on the Order of Merit to earn his Tour card for this season, Mithun, who is the son to Nandasena, a famous name on the old Asian circuit during the 1980s and 1990s, has raised the bar higher for himself this season.
“I feel that I’ve grown a lot since last year. I have good and accurate tee shots. My putter is good as well. I do lack in distance off the tees but the win will come,” said Mithun.
With the Asian Tour heading to India for the SBI-SAIL Open next week, the Sri Lankan is looking forward to reignite his title hopes.
“I have a chance to win on the shorter courses like the Delhi Golf Club. My accuracy is the highlight of my game. All I need now is a bit of luck,” said Mithun.
Chawalit, who leads the Order of Merit, courtesy of his win in Myanmar, is targeting a top-10 finish at the end of the season.
“I can play without much pressure now but I’ll aim to finish inside the top-10 of the Order of Merit. My game is on track. I just need to work on my iron for the rest of the year,” said the Thai.
Singapore’s Quincy Quek, meanwhile credited his ‘never-say-die’ attitude for propelling him to seventh place on the rankings after enjoying his best result since turning professional in 2009.
“I was six shots back before the round. When I won my first Asian Development Tour (ADT) event I was six shots back as well. But I told myself that I’ll take whatever that comes my way,” said the Singaporean, who finished tied-seventh at the Zaykabar Myanmar Open presented by Alpine.
“The guys ahead of me are all really good players and have won before. I just want to go out there and do my thing. I’m pleased that I was able to come back during the weekend. Normally I would fall back but this time around I’m happy with my five-under,” added Quek.
The Asian Tour will travel Thailand for the International Final Qualifying (IFQ) – Asia which will be held at the Amata Spring Golf and Country from February 28 to March 1.
