For the first time this year, the European Golf Association has invited the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation (APGC) to send players to compete in the European Young Masters at Golf & Spa Kunětická Hora, Czech Republic, from 25 - 27 July.
The APGC recently announced their four players:

Mirabel Ting won the Perak Amateur Open and the Chief Minister Cup in 2018. The +4 handicap player, who is currently ranked in the top-1000 of the World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR), also won the Ambank International Junior Championship earlier this year.
Pongsapak Laopakdee, Thailand
Pongsapak Laopakdee was named the Thailand Junior Golf Federation player of the year in 2018 after a season which saw him win the USKG Teen World Championship and the Pondok Indah International Junior Golf Championship. The 14-year-old has been selected as the youngest player on the Thailand men's team this year.
