PGM MNRB Sarawak Championship @ Kelab Golf Sarawak

At the rate I am posting about tournaments, I would make a sucky golf reporter. So apologies for the lack of 'up-to-date' reports. Perhaps I should just update my Twitter feed in future. 

Anyway, if you haven't heard, the PGM MNRB Sarawak Championship came to a close on Saturday and what a finish it was. 

For starters, let me just say how impressed I was with the course conditions (particularly the greens) at KGS. The Matang - Santubong greens were in superb conditions. Green and quick!

Good enough to rival premium courses in KL? You bet.

Janne Kaske, carded a superb 65 (-14 total) on the final day to storm to overtake the leaders and clinch his first professional victory. For his efforts, he took home the 1st prize of RM35,000.00 and now sits in 3rd spot on the ADT Order of Merit.

Back at the clubhouse, it looked like things were headed for a playoff with the leaders tied at 8 under through the 15th. But it was to be Janne's day and he certainly won in style.

Here's a look at his round 4 scorecard. Except for the lone bogey on the front 9, Janne raced to the finish with 8 birdies to win by 4 strokes. Congratulations Janne!

That's alot of red. 

I was following Greg Moss's flight (Get to know more about Greg who is currently 7th on the ADT order of merit, here.), who was playing with Thai player Poom Saksansin and Malaysian golfer Lam Yu Shuen. 

It's great seeing the pros in action. Watching them drive the ball for miles, hit their irons with precision and go pin hunting was very inspiring. 

The cherry on the top? Being able to interact with the pros during the round. You definitely won't get that watching the telly.

It's been a great week of golf at the KGS, but my highlight of the week? getting to hang out with Pros Nick Pugh, Greg Moss and my mate Chris who was caddying for Nick off the course. Had a great time, but more on that next time!

In the meantime, the ADT now moves on to Taiwan for the Ambassador ADT at the Hsin Feng golf and country club.
