Asian Tour's hiatus to end in Xiamen

The Asian Tour will return to the Chinese mainland for the first time in nine years when the Asian Golf Championship debuts at Kaikou Golf Club in Xiamen, Fujian province, from Nov 30 to Dec 3.

The event is the first product of a new strategic partnership signed in March between the Asian Tour and the China Golf Association.

With a total prize purse of $350,000, the tournament is jointly sanctioned by the Asian Tour and CGA.
