DBGC PRESENTS ITS FIRST HONORARY MEMBERSHIP TO TAICHI KHO

In May, Discovery Bay Golf Club (DBGC) presented its first-ever Honorary Membership to homegrown DB golfer Taichi Kho, to recognise his dedication, passion and pursuit of excellence in golf, and to celebrate what he has achieved for golf both in Hong Kong and internationally. “I am truly honoured to receive the Honorary Membership; my first memory of golfing was playing 9 holes on Ruby at DBGC,” Taichi said in his acceptance speech. “What I have accomplished is truly a whole team effort; a big part goes to my parents, for what they do and sacrifice. It is also a team effort with DBGC because I got the privileges and facilities and the support from everyone at the club.” Eddie Chan, DBGC’s General Manager said, “We are proud of the golfer spirit Taichi represents. Our club has long been dedicated to nurturing young and talented golfers, and it has been a great honour to support Taichi’s passion and professional development since he first joined us at five years old.” Over the years, DBGC has witnessed the professional development of Taichi from junior golfer, to now the highest ranked amateur golfer in Hong Kong. The runner-up in last year’s Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship, Taichi will be the first Hong Kong golfer to play in the Qualifying Series of The Open, which takes place in St Andrews, Scotland in July 2022. <photos courtesy of dbgc.>photos courtesy of dbgc.>
