SHENZHEN Cheap Air Vapormax , China, Dec. 10 (Xinhua) -- As the ninth edition of the Hyundai China Ladies Open gets ready to tee off on Friday at the Mission Hills World Cup Course, China's top women golfers will be aiming to win the national championship in a tournament that will decide this year's Order of Merit winner.
US LPGA Tour regular Lin Xiyu roared to the top of the China LPGA Tour Order late in the season during an outstanding November campaign when she posted back-to-back wins in Hainan as well as an equal fifth at the Xiamen Open International two weeks ago.
The 18-year-old currently leads the China LPGA Tour Order of Merit with RMB551,414, just ahead of veteran Pan Yanhong (RMB517,687) and the Guangdong teenager is aiming to finish the season with a win. In addition, the top-three players on the Order this year will receive an exemption into next year's US Women's Open.
"Definitely I will try to finish as high as possible. One of my targets is the money title this week. It's a great honor. It means you are the best player on the Tour. I am happy with this position," said Lin who finished 81st in her rookie campaign on the US LPGA Tour with 127 Air Vapormax Sale ,391 US dollars to successfully retain her playing card for next year.
With a top field of players from the LPGA Tour of Korea playing this week in the joint-sanctioned event, Lin admitted she will have to play her best game if she is going to lift the trophy in the 550,000 US dollars tournament.
"I felt that I have made progress from the fact that I played against the best players on the US LPGA Tour this year. The Sanya wins shows that. Over the years, I didn't have the results I desired at our national championship, but this week I will try to test my game against these KLPGA top players," she said.
"My original plan was to play in Dubai this week but I won the Sanya Ladies Open, which enables me to have two years' exemption. I changed my mind and decided to support the China LPGA Tour. Over the years the China LPGA Tour has helped me a lot, now it's my turn to give back."
After strong early start to the season in which she won twice Air Vapormax Mens , in addition to two runner-up finishes, Pan, a former power-lifter, said it was important for her to finish the season on a strong note at the national championship, a tournament dominated by South Koreans over the years.
"Entering this week I had two goals deep in my mind. One is the money title, and another is the US Women's Open [exemption]. Lin Xiyu is a great player and has had a good run now. Therefore I have to give everything I have to beat her," said the 31-year-old.
"If I am not able to win the money title, the US Women's Open spot is a comforting prize for me. It's my season-long dream. I would be happy when I left with it. I know that I am No. 2 Air Vapormax Womens , but I don't want to think about numbers and odds. I want to keep it simple. I will just try to play well this week and finish on a high note. The Hyundai China Ladies Open is a major to me."
Other top home-grown players at the championship this week include 19-year-old Feng Simin, who is coming to China fresh off of earning her US LPGA Tour card at last week's Qualifying School, and Yan Jin who earned conditional playing status stateside for next year.
Cheng Ssu-chia, the outstanding Chinese Taipei player who won last month's Xiamen Open International, is confirmed for the field in what is expected to be her last tournament as an amateur. Also playing is Wang Ziyi, the 16-year-old amateur who won the Xiamen Challenge in August and is being tipped as China's next breakout golf star.
