Edfors Wins by 2 on Asian Tour

Johan Edfors of Sweden recovered from a double bogey on the 16th hole with two birdies for a 4-under 68 and a two-shot victory in the Black Mountain Masters on Sunday.

The Swedish however did not win it with a bg margin but a mere 2 stroke victory from Prayad Marksaeng of Thailand.
Prayad Marksaeng had reason to celebrate, too, closing with an 8-under 64 to tie for second. That appears to be enough for Prayad to move into the top 50 in the world and earn a trip to Augusta National for the Masters.
Edfors went wire-to-wire for his Asian Tour victory, although he nearly threw it away with a tee shot that landed next to a tree on the 16th hole. That led to a double bogey and dropped him into a tie for the lead, but he birdied the last two holes.
Edfors finished at 17-under 271.

Can History Repeat Itself!!!

Wow.. Tiger really is amazing.. The King himself said "He's rusty" but still close to wining it again like last year. Paired with O'Hair in the final group same as the previous year, History can really repeat itself. If Tiger somehow manages to win it this year again, it'll be the 6th Bayhill Invitational Championship adding up to his resume. Tiger quoted, "I played decent today." 

Here's a highlight for you all - He chipped in 3 times!!! The guy was amazing as always on his short game, chipping it in 3 times!!! for birdies. He later said after finishing the day, "i'm getting my feel back." Watch out folks!!!

 

Tiger Woods is at 208, 2-under par, but off by quite some strokes from O'Hair. But its Sunday Tomorrow and anything can happen on sunday with these difficult conditions. What are your thoughts on this people?

GOLF IN PAKISTAN! DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL

Over the last few decades Pakistan has produced golfers of world from Mehmood “Mithu” Hussain to Shabbir Iqbal, but the unfortunate thing is that only a select few know about them. One of the main reason for this has been the lack of media support given to these mega stars of yesteryears and today. This leads to almost negligible sponsorship to the game of golf which is rather sad. We have had stars who have shown their skills and talent not only is Pakistan but around the world. I would want to mention the name Taimur Hussain who has had the honor of being the only Pakistani to win on the Asian Tour in 1998 and coincidently he beat India’s biggest star Jeev Milkha Singh which in itself is a great accomplishment, and yet taimur has never been given due credit for achieving this feat. 

Ghulam Nabi another legend of Pakistan golf has never been given any credit for his achievements. Ghulam Nabi and one of the biggest stars in the world of golf today, Vijay Singh used to share the same room in Malaysia when they were both starting their careers but now we see where Vijay Singh has reached. The main reason why sponsors do not come forward  and hold golf events in Pakistan is that whenever they are willing to sponsor golf events, the money that they give is not properly utilized and more than half of it goes into the pockets of the management. 

Shabbir Iqbal is currently the top ranked professional golfer of Pakistan. A self taught golfer, this young man has demonstrated immense talent in the national golf circuit of Pakistan. His golfing ability to focus on his game and even during the moments of nerve shattering heightened pressure; he remains cool, playing like a champion. 

Over the past two years he has won every title in Pakistan times over. The need of he hour now is that the national organization supports him and so does some devoted sponsors so that he can play overseas and spell his magic in the international golf circuit. 

In Pakistan we are short of golf courses and the game does not get adequate backing from the powers. Interestingly our leading golfers are as big heroes as any cricketers, yet remain virtually unknown because of the inadequate media coverage.
