According to the Bader Group:

Earlier in the day, China's top junior golfers faced off in an age group competition to crown the best young golfers in the country.  While they played hard and might have thought they were done for the day; Tiger took them back out to help fine tune their developing skills.  Tiger admitted to the large crowd that these 12 and 14 year-olds hit the ball harder and further than he did when he was learning the game.
