As I was on the driving range at the Qatar Master European Tour Event ending by a great win and blog from Eddie Pepperell, I notice on the far corner "One Of a Kind Swing Move" that I felt was something to look at. A few emails, WhatsApp and more WeChat back and forth with Olivier Glauser co-Founder of Shankai Sports, the operator of the PGA Tour Series China and three weeks later my one of a kind PGA Tour Series China *CaddiePlayer team landed in Chengdu:

From UK Bourmouth, 72 years of Age, 20 years on Tour #Caddie John Roberts "Ronnie" and from Lahore, Pakistani 19 years old Amateur Champion of the Faldo Series Grand Final Asia > #Player Ahmad Baig. 

This one kind of a pairing didnt make the headline in China Golf News neither the cut in both Chengdu and Chongqing legs but for sure it will be remembered for Ahmad as another learning journey to better understand what it really takes to make it to the top as did  Kang Jeffrey  and Yi Cao respectively winners in Chengdu and Chongqing.

Quotes from Ronnie

"I prepared comprehensive stats for CaddiePlayer, daily reports & calculated & documented accurate distance numbers for virtually every club. These numbers will be vital for Ahmad to work on if to be successful in his quest for glory. For Ahmad, the experience will be a great insight into the trials and tribulations of life on Tour & he won't forget China in hurry....now it's up to him but, like any successful player, he'll need to practise long, hard & effectively"
