Both tours are still in Asia, which means handy viewing times here. There’s the last two rounds of the CJ Cup@ Nine Bridges as the PGA Tour hits South Korea for the first time. From Thursday, all eyes will be on China for the last WGC tournament of the year at Sheshan International west of Shanghai. It’s a good test on the par 72 layout which includes four par fives, including the 603- yard 8th. There are four par threes, all 200 yards or better. And there’s a great par five finishing hole with plenty of water. Hideki Matsuyama won with a 265 last year, beating Daniel Berger and Henrik Stenson by seven. He's back to defend. Dustin Johnson shot 264 to win in 2013 and also returns. Kiwis Ryan Fox and Michael Hendry are also teeing it up. The LPGA continues their Asian swing with the last two rounds of the Swinging Skirts Taiwan Championship in Taipei over the weekend. Six of the world's top 10, headed by So Yeon Ryu, are in action. Lydia Ko, now at nine in the rankings, is also in the field, along with Brooke Henderson who is now just one place belong the Kiwi No 1. The women are then in Kuala Lumpur from Thursday for the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia, with eight of the top 10 — only Lexi Thompson ( 3) and I K Kim ( 8) are missing — in action.
