  • UP SET for VENETIAN MACAO OPEN Macao, Octob
    PRESS RELEASE STAR-STUDDED LINE-UP SET FOR VENETIAN MACAO OPEN Macao, October 9: The Venetian Macao Open is poised to welcome a stellar line-up of stars from the Asian Tour, with seven Order of Merit champions and no fewer than 45 Tour champions primed to challenge defending champion Anirban Lahiri for his title next week. In addition to the presence of four-time Major winner Ernie Els, seven players from the current top-10 of the Merit list and seven other former champions of the Venetian Macao Open, including two-time winner Zhang Lian-wei of China, will tee up at the challenging Macau Golf and Country Club from October 15-18. Reigning Asian Tour number one David Lipsky will also return to Asian soil for the first time since April and will be banking on a recent tied third finish in Italy to spur him towards a third Asian Tour title. Lahiri, currently top of the Merit list, is expected to fight hard to retain his crown especially when he will arrive in Macao on the back of a maiden appearance at the on-going Presidents Cup in Korea where he is the first Indian to feature in the biennial team competition. “The Venetian Macao Open is certainly one of the best tournaments we play all year. It’s very intimate and it’s just great fun to be right in the heart of Macao,” said the 28-year-old Lahiri, who is ranked 39th in the world. Other stars in the top-10 of the current Merit rankings heading to Macao include second- ranked Andrew Dodt of Australia, 2013 Venetian Macau Open champion Scott Hend of Australia, Malaysia’s Danny Chia, S.S.P.
