Y.E Yang stands as the Defending Champion of this Chunichi Crowns tournament, the man who beat Tiger Woods at the Major.

Y.E is eager defend his title at Wago, the traditional venue of Crowns, but 1 week before the event a big news ran throughout the world. Tiger made his glorious comeback victory at the Masters, his 5th Green Jacket since 2005.

"Tiger has been through really tough times, with injuries and other scandals, so I am so glad that he has overcome the difficulties and made his comeback", commented Y.E with joy and praise.

Y.E has won against Tiger at the PGA Championship in 2009 and has gain the first ever Major title in Asia. Y.E marked 4 wins in the Japan Tour and went to the bigger stage in 2007. His achievements have made a great difference in Asian golf world.

Y.E won the Volvo China Open of the EPGA Tour in 2010, but by 2017 he has lost his tour card and came back to Japan to re-start.
He had to start from the scratch. He went through the challenge starting from QT second stage. Must have been deeply humiliating for the "Major winner". But Y.E fought though. He finished as the 1st rank at the Final QT and made his way to the Japan Tour last season, and on his 2nd tournament, this venue, at the last year's The Crowns, he was "crowned" as the winner. His 5th win in Japan Tour, and it has been 12 years since his last win.

Every professional golfer has his own dramatic story to tell.
"I know for sure that Tiger will succeed more and more."
Tiger has gone through 3 years of body building, more than fit as 47 years old, and it is obvious that he is ready to win more.

Tiger has announced that he will make the appearance at the PGA Tour "ZOZO Championship" in Japan that will be held in October.
In order to fight against Tiger again, Y.E must defend his title this week.
