event Tournament week overview
The inaugural 2005

some 105 senior professionals, featuring some of the world's
finest senior professionals golfers, with invitations extended
to many of Asia's and the World’s top players and involved
some 600 amateur golfers.
The 2006
ASM @ Malaysia - Palm Garden was a similar success
where Korea's Choi_Yoon_Soo
winner of the inaugural 2003 ASM @ Singapore was
unsuccessful in his bid to claim his second ASM Title at the
2005 ASM @ Malaysia - Palm Resort which was
won by Stewart_Ginn
Stewart valiantly defended
his ASM Title, winning a sudden death play off at the 2006
ASM @ Malaysia - Palm Garden Golf Club against Thailand
Amporn Manerat to once again emerged the Champion, it was
unfortunate that due to a conflict in schedules he was unable
to defend his ASM Title at the recent 2007 ASM @ Malaysia
- PGGC
The 2007 ASM @ Malaysia - PGGC
was won by Chen_Tsang_Te
from Taiwan who managed a final round 68, including
a birdie on the 18th hole, he beat local favourite M_Ramayah
from Malaysia playing in the same flight, who also
birdied his last hole. Chen returned an ASM @ Malaysia and
an AST record winning score of 10 under par 206, beating Ramayah
by only a single stroke.
We all look forward to seeing Stewart
Ginn at the next years scheduled 2008
