Setting Highcharts piechart chartDefaults from calling jsx file in React

I am using the following syntax to render a Highcharts PieChart.

var ContainingClass = React.createClass({
  render: function() {
    return (
        <PieChart
            title={this.props.title}
            series={this.props.series}
        />
    );
  },
});

This works well, but I need to overwrite the tooltip field in PieChart. What can I change in ContainingClass to make this happen?

Edit: Here is a sample fiddle with PieChart - http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/jquery/1.9.1/highslide-software/highcharts.com/tree/master/samples/highcharts/demo/pie-basic/ I know that I need to set the tooltip field and could do it in plain javascript or jquery. I don't know how to pass my desired tooltip value from ContainingClass in React.

The correct answer is to pass a ChartOverride function as follows:

var ContainingClass = React.createClass({

  render: function() {
    return (
        <PieChart
            title={this.props.name}
            series={this.props.series}
            chartOverrides={this.chartOverrides()}
        />
    );
  },
  chartOverrides: function() {
    return {
      tooltip: {
        pointFormat: '{series.name}: <b>{point.percentage:.1f}%</b>'
      },
    }
  }

});
