A poor man Mr Zhou watched others play golf and learned by himself. Than he gained an opportunity to play the golf in a tournament. With the money he got from the tournament, he bought a house and he invited his parents to live with him. However, his parents were homesick and missed their village.
Although the popularity of golf in China shows that China is opening up to the world, it reflects some problems such as the widening gap between the poor and the rich, corruption and dispute over lands.
A journalist wrote about these problems in China in three aspects: Mr Zhou who was once peasant but became a professional, the owner of the course and the farmers who lost their land.
The story of the man who built the course reflects that corruption is a widespread problem in Chinese government. Investing in courses becomes a good way for the officers to use their money gained illegally.
The life of farmers who lost their land shows respute between farmers and government over lands. And farmers seldom get the justice they deserve.
