Marvellous Murray Scoops Midsummer Title Stuart Murray rolled back the years to claim victory at the Bushnell Midsummer Classic at Fanling on the 19th June. South Africa-born Murray, a former captain of the Hong Kong international amateur team, fired a solid 71 over the New Course in sweltering conditions to take the title by a shot from Jeffrey Wang, who finished runner-up for the second consecutive year. Lucas Lam finished in solo third, a further three shots back. “It’s unexpected, as I haven’t played in these events for ages,” said Hong Kong Golf Club member Murray, who mixed two birdies with three bogeys. “But I’m extremely happy. In these kinds of conditions I could shoot even [par] or 90, so I looked at it as a personal challenge. It’s nice to be competitive again.” In the Ladies’ division, 15-year-old Emily Vickie Leung edged out her younger sister Estee Vivian (13) on count back to take the title after the pair tied on 30 gross stableford points. Jasmine Chee placed third, a further two points adrift. The long-running tournament is arguably the most popular event on the HKGA calendar, with over 300 players taking part.
