Defending Champion: Keiichiro Fukabori: It is quite exciting challenge to try to win National Open in a row,which only few player accomplished. I remember Naomichi Joe Ozaki-san recent record 1999&2000.The golf course is very difficult, I couldn't find any single easy hole this week. Key Point to hit fairway because of heavy rough. It is going to be tough and patient 72 holes. If you miss the fairway you need exact strategy and strong will to play sometimes short away from the green and to the fairway.
