THE RETURN OF FENG!
Here is a good article about Feng who is one of the greatest golf athletes in China. Let see how she is these days.
One year ago, LPGA rookie Feng Shanshan embarked on a run of nine missed cuts in 10 events that suggested the Chinese teen may have graduated to the world’s premier women’s golf tour a fraction too early.
Now the 19-year-old Guangzhou native is starting her sophomore season with the aim of proving her detractors wrong by clinching her maiden victory.
“I missed 10 cuts in 11 tournaments (including the 2007 US Open), and everyone was thinking, ‘Oh she’s not doing well and she’s not going to come back.’ But I didn’t worry about it too much because I knew I still had time,” Feng added before explaining how her target has shifted from just trying to survive four rounds of play.
Now she is back with the world’s largest banking group behind her.
HSBC made an unusual announcement this week by stating that even if Feng had not qualified for the HSBC Women’s Champions in Singapore next month via her (final) position on the 2008 LPGA Money List, the bank would have saved her a spot simply out of respect.
“It’s not our usual business practice to discuss contingency plans or to make public our behind-the-scenes discussions,” explained Giles Morgan, HSBC Group’s head of sponsorship. “But we made that statement to show how much we respect what Shanshan has done for women’s golf in China and for the girl’s currently developing their game as part of the HSBC China Junior Golf Program.”
