A new view of Chinese golf

Englishman Leach leading the European Tour's charge in China

The golf world's focus was set firmly on Rory McIlroy's heroics on the back nine during the final round of the PGA Championship at the Valhalla Golf Club in Kentucky on Sunday.

Among those enthusiasts of the stick-and-ball game, no doubt, would have been Simon Leach, the head of the European Tour's new Beijing office. However, his overall vision extends well beyond the greens of Louisville and deep into China.
