TIANJIN, China - Taiwan's Tsai Chi-huang grabbed his second successive China Tour victory and an early birthday present, with a one-stroke victory at the Tianjin Championship on Sunday.

Tsai stormed past teenager James Su Dong to become only the third player to win back-to-back events on the China Tour, following Zhang Lianwei and Li Chao, who both achieved the feat last year.

On a nervy final day at the Yangliuqing Golf Club, Tsai, who turns 40 on Monday, closed with a one-over-par 73 for a one-over total of 289, while the 18-year-old Su shot a 76.

Hsu Mong-nan, Tsai's compatriot and the third player in the final flight, birdied the last hole for a 73 to finish third on four-over and rack up his fourth top-five result in his five Omega China Tour events this year.

"Now I have an early present.”
