Managing the difficult, long par 4s holds the key to winning on the challenging Garden Course.

The HSBC Women’s Champions is shaping up to be a magnificent tournament. The top 10 players are only separated by three strokes. It would be really foolish to put in an accurate prediction at this point in time. As we’ve seen, anything, and I mean anything can happen here at Tanah Merah’s Garden Course.

Apart from the blistering heat, the ladies' performance - and style - did their bit to spice up the action.

Michelle Wie. I’ve seen her on television, on Omega advertisements and on Nike posters. Today, I finally got to see her in person. I was just 10 feet away from one of the world’s most charismatic golfers and I’d have to say, I am smitten.

Joey Poh gets prepared for another shot at the HSBC Women's Champions, TMCC gets prepared for one of Asia's biggest golf events while I get myself prepared for a great week covering the event.

The grace and beauty of the women professionals will keep me intrigued throughout the four days of the tournament.
