Accordingly, the first round will see Minh play in the same group as Xihuan Chang of China and Masato Sumiuchi of Japan, while Anh Son has been placed in a group with Yutaka Toyoshima of Japan and Amadeus Christian Susanto of Indonesia.
This year, the tournament has attracted the participation of 120 leading amateur golfers from 40 countries. First held back in 2009, the AAC has been organised at various locations throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
