In the short term the Mallorcan said he hoping to cap the season by repeating his triumph in the Masters Series event in Madrid.

More than 100 promising players, including 21 women, swung into action in the first round of the three-day tournament. The GFT is expected to become a major part of the China Golf Associations (CGA) efforts to improve the game at the grassroots level and this season will feature events in Beijing and Shenzhen.

After seven years, a large number of these players will be at their primes, said Zhang. If we keep working hard on developing GFT and the sport at the grassroots level I am confident Chinas first group of Olympic players will come from them. Pan Yanhong, 26, led the womens field with a three-over-par 75 after yesterdays first round and said the GFT would give Chinese women more opportunities to hone their skills in a competitive environment. We are in great need of competitions. We only have six or so events every year and its far from enough, said Pan. Zhu Shenghua carded one-over 73 to lead the mens competition. ' ' '
