Last-Gasp Park

Asian Tour regular had a red-hot putter to thank after claiming his first Ageas Hong Kong PGA Championship title.

Hong Kong international Terrence Ng, the only amateur in the field, put in an impressive opening two rounds before slipping back on the final day with a 79. Nevertheless, the 18-year-old, a member of the Putra Cup side that finished second last September, can take heart from his tie for eighth in this elite field.

It wasn't such a sweet homecoming for former amateur champion Konstantin Liu Lok-tin however. Liu, 18, who turned pro last September, struggled on his return to Hong Kong after time spent in Europe, fading to an 81 on the first day. Steadier efforts in the latter rounds resulted in a tie for 20th for the long-hitting Liu.
