Superstars embark on Super Tour

HONG KONG (Agencies): The golf superstars on the US$150,000
Johnnie Walker Super Tour are approaching top form as they
prepare to tee-off in Johor Bahru, Malaysia on Tuesday for the
first of four rounds in four different countries in only six
days.

Defending Johnnie Walker Super Tour champion Jesper Parnevik
seems to be finding his best form after a recent finish in equal
third position at the Tour Championship. He will definitely need
to find his best form to succeed in the 1998 Super Tour,
competing against the likes of Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, Brian
Watts and Laura Davies.

Fijian Singh is one of the hottest players in professional
golf with his victory in the U.S. PGA Championship in August and
recent second place finish at the Tour Championship. Singh led
the Tour Championship from the start before being caught at the
post by Hal Sutton, who forced the event's first play-off since
1994.

Two-time U.S. Open champion and 1997 Johnnie Walker Classic
champion Ernie Els, who along with the Philippines' Felix Casas
is the only golfer to compete in all three Johnnie Walker Super
Tours, is sure to turn in a strong performance, as is British
Open runner-up and world number 27, Brian Watts.
