Yusof risks ban in rival event

JOHOR BARU, Malaysia (AFP): Nazamuddin Yusof will be the only Malaysian taking part in the Asian PGA Tournament Players Championship at Johor Baru from today.

And he will risk being banned by his home PGA for taking part in the third leg of the new Asian PGA Tour which is in a growing dispute with the rival Asia Pacific Golf Confederation.

The Malaysian PGA (MPGA) has decided not to sanction the event as it is linked to a different promotion agreement. The MPGA has threatened to ban members if they compete at the Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort in Johor Baru.
