Thailand and Asian Classic?

 – Events moved to Dubai Classic.

The article states that the first two versions of this event were called the Thailand and Asian Classic but I think this may be incorrect, and that maybe the Thailand and Asian Classic were the last events of the Dubai Classic.

[1] states that the Thailand Classic "took over" the Dubai spot in the calender, and they also share "Classic" in their names. It looks to me they changed the location of the tournament from Dubai to Thailand and renamed it accordingly. The Thailand Classic was renamed the Asian Classic the following year, and according to Chris Turner's archive was dropped from the calender.

I can't find any link between the Thai/Asian Classic and the China Open at [2], so I was wondering if anyone could clarify this. It looks like a mistake to me and that the Thai/Asian Classic share the Dubai Classic lineage rather than the China lineage. Betty Logan (talk) 11:43, 27 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
