The Legends Tour remains in Cambodia, where The Vattanac Legends Championship Legacy Edition is scheduled to take place from November 26th to 28th at the Vattanac Golf Resort in Khan Chbar Ampov, near Phnom Penh. It's the same course where the previous Vattanac Championship was held, where Scotsman David Drysdale won his first title. Among the starters is Emanuele Canonica.

The field of 18 features the top twenty finishers, with nine top ten finishers, and eleven season winners. Australian Scott Hend, ranked number one with two wins this year, returns. Hend traveled to Saudi Arabia last week for an Asian Tour event, where he works part-time, and is virtually assured of maintaining his lead with two events remaining on the tour.
Other top-ten players who have won the title will try to at least prevent him from making it three victories, including England's Peter Baker (No. 2), Simon Griffiths (No. 5), and Andrew Marshall (No. 10), who won the Sergio Melpignano Senior Italian Open; South Africans Keith Horne (No. 3) and James Kingston (No. 6); and Drysdale himself (No. 7). Not to mention others aiming for a repeat, including England's Steve Webster, Wales' Jamie Donaldson, Austria's Marcus Brier, and New Zealand's Mark Brown.

Many others are contributing to the spectacle, including Sweden's Mikael Lundberg (No. 4), Brazil's Adilson Da Silva (No. 8), Germany's Thomas Ggele, England's Greg Owen and Matthew Cort, South Africa's Darren Fichardt, and France's Lionel Alexandre. In addition, there are two Major Champions, Scotland's Paul Lawrie and New Zealand's Michael Campbell.
Emanuele Canonica, 33rd in the previous race, has slowed down in recent outings, but he has three top-seven finishes under his belt: second in the Reignwood Championship, fifth in the OFX Irish Legends, and seventh in the European Legends Cup.
