Aberdeen Brunei Senior Masters

Torrance, Woosnam, Lyle favourites. The Aberdeen Brunei Senior Masters is about to kick off tomorrow and we have top names like Sam Torrance, Ian Woosman and Sandy Lyle playing in the tournament but for Torrance, he has been in Brunei a few times already and perhaps he has an advantage. He loves the golf course and the Empire Hotel too. He hopes to win the tournament this weekend. When asked on the Tiger Woods' situation, he declined to comment. Good luck, Sam.
As for Woosman, it was his first time playing at the par 71 Jack Nicklaus designed course. He couldn't say much about the course just yet and he was still acclimatising to the our humid weather. But he is wary of his opponents such as Sam and Sandy. Woosman will be competing in the pro-am this morning as a practice round for the big event. We shall see how they fair on the first round which kicks off tomorrow.
Yesterday Torrance and Woosnam were invited to play blindfolded to raise awareness for the International Blind Golf Association and it was organised by one of the event sponsors, International Sports Promotion Society. According to Torrance, "It's fantastic that blind people can play golf and they need a lot of trust in their wife or caddy."
