Levy aiming for historic hat-trick at China Open

Alex Levy will have a unique hat-trick in sight when he tees off to defend his Volvo China Open title at Beijing's Topwin Golf & Country Club this week.

Winner of two of the past four editions of the tournament, Levy is returning to China on a hot streak.

On Sunday the 27-year-old Frenchman fired a final-round 2-under 70 to edge overnight leader Alvaro Quiros by a single shot to win the Trophee Hassan II in Morocco, marking his fifth European Tour victory.
