Wang Wins Olympic Gold Championship

Wang Ter Chiang of Chinese Taipei led from the start to finish in the Olympic Golf Championship which ended in Bogor, about 60 kilometers south of Jakarta, on Friday.

According to national newspapers Saturday, Wang scored 5-under-par 67 in the final day to collect an overall 12-under-par 276 after four rounds of the 250 million rupiah (28,090 U.S. dollars) competition. Wang pocketed 60 million rupiah in cash prizes.

Indonesians Maan Nasim and Ilyasak shared the second place with a total of four-under-par 284.

Malaysian Danny Chia, who jointly led the first day with Wang, only finished third after producing two-under-part 70 for a total of two-under-par 286.

Defending champion Stephen Atako Lindskog of Sweden failed to perform his best during the four-day event as he only finished four with a total score of one-under-par 287.

The competition itself was an attractive performance from top flight players, much to the delight of spectators.

The final day of the competition was reported to have drawn many spectators. Some of them did not seem to be content to watch the game from the sidelines and followed the players from hole to hole under the blistering heat of the day.
