Seventeen-year-old national squad member, Troy Storm, is looking forward to another opportunity to prove his skills on home soil again, after making the cut at last year's Singapore Open. “Playing the Singapore Open means an enormous amount to me, especially after last year’s experience, which was one of my best memories on the golf course ever,” Storm said. “Representing my country and competing in front of friends and family makes the tournament even more special. I am really looking forward to this year’s Singapore Open and can’t wait to be out there again, enjoying every moment.”
Last year, Lee was the leading Singaporean, finishing in a tie for 50th place, while Storm finished in a tie for 63rd. It was a remarkable performance by the duo, who represented Singapore on home soil the previous month at the World Amateur Team Championship, also known as the Eisenhower Trophy.
This season, the tournament is also one of the Open Qualifying Series events, where the top two players not otherwise exempt will earn spots into The Open at Royal Birkdale, taking place from July 16-19.
