009 GOLF ASIA SEPTEMBER 2025

This month's issue celebrates two people who, despite their prowess and abilities, go about doing their job quietly and with great integrity. Dick Toh of TEHC has been on the frontier of golf course construction for a long time now, but few golf fans know his name. He's built all the top courses in Singapore, and have also lent a hand at several in the region. Our feature writer Tim Pinnegar gives Toh his due in an enlightening piece on the man behind the bulldozers. On the other end of the spectrum, Englishman Tommy Fleetwood has been standing on the border of greatness for many years now. After numerous second-place finishes in top golf championships, he finally won on the PGA TOUR. Not only did he win the TOUR Championship - one of the game's prized tournaments - but he also won the Fedex Cup, and US$10 million, in the process. Tributes to two individuals who have given the game much of their lives under the radar.
