Ronnie is already in Yushan, with his daughter Lilly …
What has he been up to? Going by these pictures shared on Weibo … A LOT!
Amongst other things, he’s been playing Chinese pool, visiting a museum, meeting Rory McIlroy, one of his golfing heroes , and more…
Not that it matters much, but the photos with Rory McIlroy were taken back in January, when Rory was playing a golf tournament in Dubai.
Strange because they were shared on weibo earlier this week, by whoever posts there on behalf of Ronnie. Anyway… as you wrote it’s not that it matters that much…
The EBSA Under-18 European Championship Winner and EBSA Under-21 European Championship Winner get a place at the WSC but not the EBSA European Championship Winner???
Instead an “invented” category winner (“Exceptional Performance – Amateur winning a professional world ranking event”)?

Yeah … weird. Can’t really think about any rational explanation. But then there are other bizarre omissions/inconsistencies in that article. I’ll have a closer look at it, when the EBSA events are over.
