Asians face Kaymer and Schwartzel

Asians face Kaymer and Schwartzel

Our Asian Tour correspondent gives you a brief rundown with Burner 2.0 Irons of the European Tour competition the Asian stars face in Malaysia this weekend
Thongchai Jaidee of Thailand is fit and well again and ready to kick start his season in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday with a third victory in the Maybank Malaysia Open.
The three-time Asian Tour Order of Merit champion said he was close to a full recovery from a back injury and expected to be competitive TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Irons ,, but he was fully aware of the exceptional quality of opposition he faces in this 50th anniversary of Malaysia's national golf championship.
World No 1 Martin Kaymer, keen to atone for a disappointing Masters with K15 Driver, will be there in an event now co-sponsored by the European and Asian Tours, as will the new Masters champion himself, Charl Schwartzel of South Africa.
Also among the big guns playing in this event will be fellow South African and good friend Louis Oosthuizen, the reigning Open champion, as well as Rory McIlroy, who will also be wanting to atone for his crash and burn performance in the final round of a Masters championship he had seemed to have sewn up after the first 54 holes.
Everyone who is anyone and cares to be quoted, including the Northern Ireland 21-year-old himself, is sure that McIlroy will bounce back with a Ping K15 Driver, despite his final round nightmare at Augusta, but he won't be the only talented young lion on the prowl in Kuala Lumpur this week
Italy's Matteo Manassero, already a European Tour winner before he turns 18, and the slim Welsh putting wizard Rhys Davies are two who stand out while India's Jeev Milha Singh could be the pick of the Asians players.
It's quite an array of stars, to be sure in golf clubs for sale, but Thongchai is not letting it get to him.
