Monty accepts Hong Kong invitation

European Tour order of merit leader Colin Montgomerie will play in December’s Hong Kong Open, where he will face off against defending champion Miguel Angel Jimenez.

The pair’s presence at the tournament – which will be played from December 1 to 4 at Fan Ling and is co-sanctioned by both the European and Asian tours – was announced today as part of a new sponsorship deal to cover the event by Swiss bank UBS.
