China's best chasing glory at Macao Open

China's two most decorated golf stars, Zhang Lianwei and Liang Wenchong, will return to the $1 million Venetian Macao Open from Oct 15-18, and attempt to bring the coveted trophy back to the mainland for the first time in more than a decade.
Zhang, the only player to have won the Macao Open twice in its 16-year history, was the last champion from the mainland when the Zhuhai native triumphed over Zimbabwe's Nick Price in a dramatic five-hole playoff in 2002.
Zhang went on to create history by becoming the first Chinese mainland golfer to win a co-sanctioned Asian Tour and European Tour event and the first to compete in The Masters.
