\"zhouxunshuguangzhou031608.jpg\"<\/center>Zhou closed with a 2-over 74 on Sunday to finish nine strokes off the lead<\/a> in a tie for 6th place in the China Tour’s 2008 season opener in Guangzhou \u00e2\u20ac\u201d his previous best finish on the tour was an 8th in 2007, also on the Dragon Lakes Golf Club course in Guangzhou. If not for a bogey on 18, Zhou would have earned the first top-5 finish of his career. Perhaps more importantly, that bogey may have kept Zhou from earning his elusive China Golf Association pro card.Zhou is currently a “pro coach,” one notch below “pro player.” In previous years, before foreign players were allowed to enter China Tour events, a top-three finish on any Tour event meant an automatic pro player card. Having that card could help players like Zhou get higher-paying teaching jobs and sponsorships. Had Zhou finished one stroke better in Guangzhou, he would have finished 5th overall, but third among Mainland Chinese entrants (two Taiwanese players finished tied for second, behind repeat champion Zhang Lianwei<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Zhou earned RMB 14,750<\/a> (US$2,082), before tax, for his sixth place finish.<\/p>\n

Zhou arrives in Shanghai today for a non-China Tour event featuring the top domestic tour golfers from China and Korea at Shanghai Silport Golf Club<\/a>. More information on that tournament (in Chinese) here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
