On song with an eagle, birdies and a 310m drive

Singapore

A jubilant Lim Joo Seng should have been on Cloud Nine, but he chose to keep his feet on the ground. Humility has always been his trademark, and he always has a big smile even after a bad day on the golf course.

Last Friday at the prize presentation dinner, many golfers ambled up to congratulate him on a stupendous showing of a two-over 74 (34-40) score on a hot, humid day at the challenging Serapong course, the pride of Sentosa Golf 's properties, and he kept repeating that he was "lucky".
