AUGUST, Georgia (AP) – Guan Tianlang to postpone its tasks for some hours, took the snack to its mom it had done and it went out to play with its friends. Its courtyard was Augusta National and the world had syntonized to see 14 – year of age, of China, the youngest player in giving the first blow in the Master’s degrees and more young people in any important in 148 years. This is an appointment to play. “I felt a little nervous in the first tee”, said Guan. “But I stuck a big blow of exit and, after that, everything what feels comfortable…. I only have entertained today. Very entertaining.” It played very well, also. Guan did one of 15 feet of on the birdie stripe its last hole On Thursday, ending with a 1 on 73. As the ball rolled in the cup, the multitude about 18 gave to the young man a standing applause, with the Teachers twice champion Ben Crenshaw they take the applauses of its young playmate. To play this way again on Friday, and it has an opportunity to do the cut. “I you it am saying, that it played like a veteran today”, said Crenshaw. “Played a beautiful golf round. It remains like that inside itself. It is very sure and, of course, beautiful hands. Its thought process never came hurried. Very patient. Much, much, very impressive.” It was not the only one that was impressed. The same rumors “wow” could be listened in every hole, like the fans – young people and old men – astonished in the eighth grade, who was supporting its account with the best golfers of the world. “This is that of 14 years of age. “” “Fourteen? It is a prank!” “Fourteen? That is incredible. “” It Is incredible. Absolutely incredible”, said Lisa Nichols, whose folding chair, from the Master’s degrees of 1998, was major than Guan. And more than a little of humility. “He makes me feel little evil”, he said 15 – year of age, Daniel Thrailkill timidly. “I (reproduction). I cannot play so well like him, nevertheless.” About the only person who did not seem impressed with Guan Guan it was he itself. It went towards the first tee with confidence, uniting to Crenshaw and Matteo Manassero, who three years ago, at the age of 16, turned into the youngest person in making August National the cut in, and its caddies. It gave him a long look towards the street before taking some blows of warming, then it passed up to the tee and give him cane. In 5 feet and 9 and about 150 pounds, which it does not strike in any place close to the big ones. But rarely it turned aside of the street, and its game cut more that it compensates what he lacks in length. 3 obtained its first birdie in the hole, to sting to approximately 12 meters beyond the hole and to roll pulg After its unit in the long pair 4, No. 5 navigated more to the right, recovered with a good just shot under the green one, then jumped to 3 feet. And although he did not have the distance 5 of the hole came to the green in the pair 15 in two, the sufficient thing approached to give him a makeable birdie putt.” (Adam Scott) and I were speaking about him, joking a little, if we had been here for 14 years, we have been moving”, said Sergio García, who knows a little about being a phenomenon. “It happened to me at the age of 16 when I played the British Open sea and thought that it was going to lose in the first blow of exit, so I cannot imagine what he must have felt.” If Guan was nervous, never leave that is seen. It does not show any emotion, really. There was occasional smiles, a bomb of handle when he rolled a putt for a birdie, a kind touch of its cap to be grateful for the applauses of the multitude. But the adolescent with child’s face never looked stunned, and there was never an indication of the vanity. “The people were very agreeable for me”, he said. “And I feel comfortable in the field.” If one day they allow to make a mistake, Guan knew that its parents were to only a few meters of distance. After having breakfast with its only son – potatoes, meat, rice, vegetables and fried eggs – Hong Yu and Han Wen it continued it during the whole round, together with several friends of the family. But in contrast to the parents of some other young stars, which it did not seem violent, caught in the results of its son. After the second Guan injection in the first hole, while each one continued the trajectory of the ball, Han Wen observed its son, breathing a mitigation sigh when the young man did a satisfaction gesture. He applauded enthusiastically after every shot – of its son and those of its playmates. When one asked him if its son would turn prompt professional, Han Wen answered with a round one not. “Not in a lot of time, perhaps,” Han Wen said. “The fans amuse themselves. To enjoy it.” But if Guan keeps on playing this way, of course there will be pressure on him to turn into professional before he is out of the secondary school. Golf begins to become scarcely popular in China, for what is an enormous market without exploiting for the excursions, the sponsors and the television. Guan is the first Chinese player with potential of real star, and I do not believe that the gurus of marketing of golf are already not they were imagining it like Tiger Woods of Asia. There was even a little of a little Tiger-esque on the reaction Guan it managed On Thursday. The galleries were buzzing when it was walking for. The children were following it of hole in hole, running ahead to be able to restate points to watch it. “He is going to come to the right for us!” 12 years D.J. Kellar exclaimed after the second Guan injection in the hole 2 landed in the right side of the street. Sew enough intoxicating for someone that August National came to with six filling textbooks in its bag. Guan still goes to the house again the public school – mathematics, English and the history are its favorite topics – and it spends at least 90 minutes a day studying. Pero Guan is the sufficiently wise thing as to know that he is not going to compete in the Master’s degrees. Do not be year, at least. “But I believe that I can win in the future”, he said with a smile.
