Chen Ching-Po is one of the greatest golfers to come out of the Republic of China. Though small in stature, Ching-Po won numerous titles around the world and represented his country in 11 World Cup Matches. Champagne Tony Lema received his nickname after treating the media to the beverage upon capturing his first tournament. Lema burst onto the golf scene in 1957 and quickly established himself as a force on the PGA Tour. In his all too short career, he won 11 PGA Tour titles and the 1964 British Open. 60 Minutes.
