HONG KONG, 17 Nov 2015, (HK Golfer News Wire) - Seen here pictured with his mother Shirley Leung, Anson has learned more than swinging and putting in his second year of golf play.

"He has become a more disciplined person," Shirley spoke of her son.

"Before picking up the game, he gets distracted easily. Golf has helped him to focus on a goal and work hard for it."

Anson is also a keen snooker fan. “Potting (a snooker ball) is much like putting,” Anson said, “I hope to grow taller soon as the snooker table is a bit too big for me.”

At last month’s UBS Hong Kong Open, Anson had the chance to watch his favourite player Justin Rose in action. He also took part in a one-hour golf clinic with Marcus Fraser and local pro Tim Tang.
