The female golfers are in town for the HSBC Women's Champion, which takes place from this Thursday till Sunday at Sentosa Golf Club's Serapong Course.
World No. 25 Korda, who won the Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic last month when she beat defending HSBC Women's champion Stacy Lewis by one stroke, said: "I'm getting used to the weather, I've walked the course, and I feel great. I'm here to win, I wouldn't be here otherwise."
Simon Ng, 31, who picked up golf two years ago, said: "It's unbelievable. I thought there would be a lot of security, but surprisingly we got very close to the golfers, which was great. I'm a big fan of Jessica, I think she has a fantastic swing."
