HSBC Golf Tournament


We decided to take the kids to their first golf tournament. The HSBC tour is very popular in Shanghai but expensive in Chinese standards so it's not too crowded. The tournament is in Sheshan which is about an hour drive from our house.

All the big names were here. Tiger, Phil, Ernie.... BTW - this was before the Tiger scandal broke.

The kids had fun walking around the course, but Alex decided that the area to play in was much more fun. He played on the golf carts for about an hour.

We weren't allowed to take photos on the course so we didn't get pics of the big guys. But we saw them up close and personal.

Alex even got a signed glove from Jason Dufner. We were just standing watching the players practice and Jason walked across from the pitching green to the putting green and handed it to him. Alex was in awe, it was really nice of him to give it to us.

It was a beautiful day to watch golf.
