HONGKONG

Part of a Ming dynasty scroll "The Autumn Banquet", being exhibited at the Hong Kong Heritage Museum March 21, 2006, shows participants of an imperial court spend their pastime on 'chuiwan' similar to the modern day golf, in which the players hits a ball and drive it into a hole. The scroll, which is exhibited for the first time outside mainland China, has sparked a controversy of which country invented golf. REUTERS/Bobby Yip
