Event champions during that timeframe: 2005 – David Howell; 2006 – Y.E. Yang; 2007 – Phil Mickelson; 2008 – Sergio Garcia. In 2009, the HSBC Champions was granted World Golf Championships status but was an unofficial event on the PGA TOUR. Phil Mickelson’s win in 2009 is not considered an official PGA TOUR victory. Beginning in 2010, the HSBC Champions counted as an official PGA TOUR victory and offered a three- year exemption on the PGA TOUR—provided the tournament was won by a PGA TOUR member. Prize money, however, did not count toward the official PGA TOUR money list, even in a PGA TOUR member won the tournament. Tournament winners during this timeframe include: 2010 – Francesco Molinari (unofficial PGA TOUR win); 2011 – Martin Kaymer (unofficial PGA TOUR win); 2012 – Ian Poulter (official PGA TOUR win).

In November, I joined Chairman of the Masters Tournament, Billy Payne and President of the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation (APCG), Kwang-soo Hur to oversee the inaugural playing of the Asian Amateur Championship. With the Masters, The R&A will underwrite the Asian Amateur in its early years and it is right that golf’s Majors should use their commercial success in this way.
