Four Asian Tour events included in The Open Qualifying Series
Kazuki Higa won the Yeangder TPC at the weekend for his second title in two weeks, and in the process rose to the top of the Asian Tour Order of Merit for the first time in his career.
The Japanese star, winner of the Shinhan Donghae Open in Korea before last week’s victory, did an excellent job in keeping bogies off his card on the Linkou International Golf & Country Club layout, dropping shots on only four holes during the week and leading the Fewest Bogies or Worse stat category together with Charles Porter from the United States.
Higa also led the Bounce Back category with 50%, meaning he made birdies immediately following two of his four bogies. He also performed well in the Putts per Round and Greens in Regulation (GIR) categories where he ranked T11 and 11th respectively.
Not one of the longest players off the tee Higa placed 51st in Driving Distance with 299.6 yards while hitting 58.93% of the Fairways ranking T20.
There were three joint runners-up last week, Porter, Rattanon Wannasrichan from Thailand and Chinese Taipei’s Wang Wei-hsuan, and both Porter and Wang are known for their power off the tee. The American topped the Driving Distance category with an impressive 340.4 yards and Wang was not far behind with 337.6, ranking third. They were however not listed highly in the Fairways Hit table, with Wang placing T54 with 46.43%, and Porter T71 with 39.29%.

Wang had a good week on the greens and ranked fourth in Putts per GIR with 1.627, helping him top the Most Birdies table with 24. His other stats for the week: Putts per Round 28.25 (T16), GIR 70.83% (T25).
Porter also enjoyed a good week with the short stick finishing T8 in Putts per Round with 27.75. He also recovered from missed greens well, topping the Scrambling category with 80.95%. Like Wang he had a GIR percentage of 70.83 and rounding out his stats he was T27 in Putts per GIR with 1.725.
Rattanon excelled on the Linkou greens and led the field in the Putts per GIR with 1.592, resulting in 22 birdies which was second only to Wang’s 24. He was also T2 in Putts per Round with an average of 27. His other stats for the week: T38 in GIR with 68.06%, 42nd in Driving Distance with 303.9 yards and T26 in Fairways Hit with 55.36%.

That they would face high winds in Taiwan is a gimme for Asian Tour players. But to be battered by Typhoon Krathon was something else. The deadly storm barrelled through Taiwan packing winds in excess of 130kmph and dumping over 65 inches of rain in two days during the Mercuries Taiwan Masters week. Story from the 2024 Yearbook.
However, the fact that the players still managed to play 54 holes and South African Jbe Kruger was crowned the champion, was a testament to the exceptionally hard work put in by the ground staff of Taiwan Golf and Country Club, and the innovation and determination shown by the tournament officials.
With the first two days abandoned and enough lakes forming on the golf course, most players expected no more than 27 holes over the weekend. In the end, three rounds were held with shotgun starts in two days, including two full-field rounds, with the cut falling after 36 holes as per usual.
It became a two-man battle between the 38-year-old Kruger and Korea’s Jeunghun Wang. The South African was looking for his first win on the Asian Tour in over five years, while the 2016 AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open champion Wang was looking for his first professional win since returning from National Service two years ago.

Kruger, with his wife Denise on the bag, closed with a three-under-par 69 to finish on eight-under-par aggregate. That included a crucial birdie from six feet on the 18th hole that broke the deadlock against Wang (73), who unfortunately made a bogey after a wayward tee shot to fall back for a tied second place with Thailand’s Pavit Tangkamolprasert at six-under-par total.
Kruger had started the third and final round two shots behind Wang and made five birdies, three of them coming in the last five holes. Wang made two birdies in his first eight holes to stay ahead but dropped three shots in his last 10 holes.
India’s Yuvraj Singh Sandhu, who got into the tournament at the last minute after being the sixth reserve on Monday, made full use of the opportunity to record his first top-five overseas on the Asian Tour. At five-under-par total, he was tied fourth alongside the Thai duo Chonlatit Chuenboonngam (70) and Rattanon Wannasrichan (71).
Three-time Asian Tour winner Kruger, who had come into the tournament placed 69th in the Order of Merit before jumping to 10th place, said: “It means the world. I did not come here with any form. I have not been playing great, so it’s unbelievable. It’s been glory to God, with the typhoon and everything that has been happening.
“I probably made it as hard as I could on myself. I could not get it on the fairway, I could not get it on the green, I was trying to make birdies, and then, on the last hole, I hit it in the fairway finally.”
Mercuries Group Chairman, George Wong with the champion Jbe Kruger.
Sandhu, the 27-year-old from Chandigarh who won on the Asian Development Tour in 2023, summed up the week for the players and paid rich tribute to everyone who made the tournament happen.
“Mercuries Taiwan Masters was an unforgettable week for me, not just because it was my first top-five on the Asian Tour, but also because of what we had to face as players. It really was a scary couple of days as we were locked up in our rooms because of the typhoon, not knowing whether we’d play or not,” said Sandhu.
“In a way, when we got the news that the tournament will start on Saturday, I somehow had a perfect mindset. I told my caddie that we don’t know how many holes we will get to play, so let’s just focus on trying to make as many birdies as possible. I was not thinking about my own golf before the tournament, just how Taiwan had to cope with such a disaster. Golf is a funny game, and when you don’t have expectations, it tends to deliver.
“Honestly, I was not expecting the golf course to be in such good shape. The greens, the drainage, the work put on by the maintenance staff… everything was top-class. The clubhouse staff did a phenomenal job because they accommodated almost the full field at times. And for the Asian Tour staff to manage 54 holes was just incredible.”
Golf fans are in for a treat this November as the Moutai Singapore Open will feature an outstanding field headlined by LIV Golf League stars Paul Casey from England, and Americans Talor Gooch, Peter Uihlein and Anthony Kim.
The cream of the Asian Tour will also be competing, including defending champion Sadom Kaewkanjana from Thailand, former winner and compatriot Jazz Janewattananond, and the current Asian Tour Order of Merit leader Scott Vincent from Zimbabwe.
To take place from 6-9 November at The Singapore Island Country Club (SICC), the US$2 million tournament will be part of The International Series for the first time – the set of upper-tier events on the Asian Tour that offer a pathway to the LIV Golf League.
As the penultimate event on The International Series schedule this season, the Moutai Singapore Open will go a long way to determining who wins the season-long Rankings race and secures a place on the 2026 LIV Golf League.

A fan favourite known for being one of the game’s great ball strikers, Casey returns to Singapore after one of his strongest LIV Golf League seasons so far. The 15-time European Tour winner and Ryder Cup veteran played a key role in guiding Crushers GC to a second-place finish in the 2025 team standings, with three team wins this season.
He also racked up four top-10 individual finishes and led the League in Strokes Gained: Approach – a testament to his precision iron play. He came agonisingly close to his first individual LIV title at LIV Golf Dallas, finishing runner-up in a four-man play-off to Patrick Reed.
While Casey has competed in several Singapore Opens, including a notable runner-up finish to Jazz in 2019, this will be his first time competing at SICC.
“It is always a privilege to return to a tournament with such a rich history. Singapore is a place I love returning to; the fans are fantastic, and their energy at events is truly special. I have come close to winning before and hope I can do so this year. I’m excited to be part of this incredible field and play at The Singapore Island Country Club for the first time,” said Casey.
Casey is a two-time winner on the Asian Tour, winning the TCL Classic in China and the Volvo China Open in 2005. He has played in Singapore’s National Open on three occasions: 2012, 2019 and 2022.
Range Goats GC star Uihlein has tasted success before on The International Series – winning twice last season in England and Qatar. Smash GC player Gooch brings some excellent form into the tournament, finishing fourth in the individual LIV Golf standings thanks to a win at LIV Golf Andalucia, a third-place finish in Korea and a fourth at LIV Golf UK. Wild card Kim will be no stranger to Singapore’s golf fans as a former member of the US Ryder Cup team.

Fans can also look forward to the return of the ‘Beat the Pro’ challenge this year – a popular fan experience that will be played on one of the signature par-3 holes at SICC. Brayden Lee and Troy Storm, who will represent Singapore at the World Amateur Team Championship this year on home soil, both featured in it before.
The Moutai Singapore Open will be open to the public, free of charge. More details on ticket registration and spectator activities will be shared in the coming weeks.
After a poor start to the season, Suteepat Prateeptienchai [main picture] was back to his best at the end of last month – claiming the Mandiri Indonesia Open.
It was a timely return to form ahead of the Thai star’s trip back to his very own promised land this week: Chinese-Taipei.
Suteepat is the defending champion at the Yeangder TPC, which starts Thursday at Linkou International Golf & Country Club, New Taipei City, and all eyes are on a player who has a special affinity to the island state like no other.
Victory last year was one of two in the country as he claimed the Taiwan Glass Taifong Open a few months after. He also won the Taifong event a year earlier and was runner-up the year before.
His love affair with Chinese-Taipei, which has such a strong golfing tradition, is well known, and he has also enjoyed success on the local circuit there.
“I know I have chance when we play in Taiwan,” said the 32-year-old.

However, that was probably not what he was thinking after he missed five out of the first six cuts this season.
A change in equipment, just before his victory in Indonesia, was key to getting back on track.
“I changed my equipment sponsor and just changed my irons before Indonesia, like a month ago. But now I’m just more confident with the new irons, wedges and ball and everything, so I feel better now,” he explained.
“I am not back to playing as well as last year, but I am playing much better than the first half of this year. I got some confidence in Indonesia after I won it. Last week I would say was not too good, but I still made the cut. So, I think I have chance to defend my title this week.”
His success in Indonesia was his fourth on the Asian Tour but first outside of Chinese-Taipei. Having a lot of friends here has been a big factor in his success he says, while he also always feels he has a head start.
“I have played Linkou quite a few times when I’m in Taiwan, so yeah, I think that gives me an advantage compared to other foreigners,” said Suteepat.
He revealed a healthy diet has also played an important part in his success – all thanks to his girlfriend.
Suteepat Prateeptienchai.
He said: “My girlfriend studies sports nutrition and helps me with my diet. It’s important this time of year when there are so many events and you need energy. I eat bread and nuts when I play. It makes me make feel like I have more power on the course all day.”
Suteepat is now in 15th place on the Asian Tour Order of Merit and with 10 more events to go this year – including another title defence at the Taiwan Glass Taifong Open – he has an outside chance to win the Merit title.
He says: “I haven’t really thought about that, because I wasn’t playing very well earlier this year. I’ll just play the best for me this year. We’ll see more next year. I have a lot of plans to improve my fitness and everything.”
He has been paired in the first two rounds with Chinese-Taipei’s Lee Chieh-po, fresh from his first season playing the LIV Golf League, and Kazuki Higa from Japan – winner of last week’s Shinhan Donghae Open, in Korea.

The Asian Tour makes its first visit of the year to Chinese-Taipei this week for the Yeangder TPC.
Thailand’s Suteepat Prateeptienchai is the defending champion and has a monopoly on titles in Chinese-Taipei having triumphed three times there in the past two years.
The Yeangder TPC is one of the jewels in the crown of tournament golf in Chinese-Taipei and has always been an important event on the Asian Tour schedule.
Thailand’s Thaworn Wiratchant had the distinction of winning the inaugural edition 15 years ago and is the first and only player to have lifted the trophy more than once. He is part of an impressive list of past champions that includes last year’s Asian Tour Order of Merit champion John Catlin. The American was triumphant in 2018. He is in the field this week.
Chinese-Taipei’s Lee Chieh-po, also competing, and Lu Wei-chih are the only local players to have their names inscribed on the trophy – in 2021 and 2011 respectively.
For the second season in-a-row the tournament will boast prizemoney of US$1 million – the joint most lucrative in the nation.

Tournament Notes
- Last week’s winner Kazuki Higa from Japan got off to a great start in his 2025 Asian Tour campaign strong, going T8, T5 and T2 in the Smart Infinity Philippine Open, International Series India Presented by DLF and New Zealand Open presented by Sky Sports respectively, before finally getting his hands on a trophy at the Shinhan Donghae Open in Korea last Sunday. He is currently second on the Order of Merit and the highest ranked player in the field going into this week. On the Japan Tour he has recorded six top 10’s this season, including wins at last week’s tri-sanctioned Shinhan Donghae Open and at the ISPS HANDA Explosion in the Summer in mid-August.
- Thailand’s Suteepat Prateeptienchai is the defending champion, and he recently won his fourth Asian Tour title at the Mandiri Indonesia Open three weeks ago. Although not happy with his game in Korea last week, Suteepat is always one of the favourites in Chinese Taipei having won three of his four titles here.
- Currently in sixth on the Order of Merit, Hong Kong’s Taichi Kho is coming off back-to-back top-four finishes after a second in the Mandiri Indonesia Open three weeks ago and a T4 at last week’s Shinhan Donghae Open. In addition to those top results, he has also posted a T4 at the Kolon Korean Open, a T6 at the International Series Macau presented by Wynn and a T10 at the International Series Morocco. The winner of the 2023 World City Championship presented by Hong Kong Golf Club looks good to continue his great run of form.
- Danthai Boonma from Thailand is the third highest ranked player on the Order of Merit in seventh place, after a T4 last week in Korea, a runner-up at the International Series Morocco in July and a T8 at the season opening Smart Infinity Philippine Open in January. He also recorded a win on All Thailand Tour’s Singha Championship in early August as well as a runner up on the same tour two weeks earlier.
- Local hero Lee Chieh-po has been playing in the LIV Golf League all season, after earning his spot at the LIV Golf Promotions in Saudi Arabia last December. His best results on LIV this year have been a T12 in Hong Kong and a T13 in Chicago. Lee won the International Series Thailand last year during a stretch of events where he finished in the top-10 seven out of eight events. He won the 2021 edition of this tournament when it was only held on the local tour because of Covid, finished second in 2022 when it returned to the Asian Tour schedule, and came in fourth last year. The number four on the 2024 Asian Tour Order of Merit will be playing in his first Asian Tour event this season.
- Australian Travis Smyth, who won this tournament in 2022 and was runner-up in 2023, is entering the tournament in good form after a T8 in last week’s Shinhan Donghae Open and a T3 in the Mandiri Indonesian Open two weeks earlier. He has so far this season recorded four top-10s, as in addition to the before mentioned events he posted T10s in the International Series India presented by DLF and International Series Macau presented by Wynn.
- Thaworn Wiratchant is the only player to win the tournament more than once, in 2010 and 2013, but the legendary Thai player is not in the field this week.
Japanese star Kazuki Higa mastered the greens to win the tri-sanctioned Shinhan Donghae Open at Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Korea last week. It was his second victory in the tournament after also having taken the title in 2022 when it was played in Japan.
The Asian Tour member led the field with 1.566 Putts per Greens in Regulation (GIR), and he was fourth in Putts per Round with 26.75. His performance on the greens resulted in 23 birdies for the week – the joint second most with Korean Seonghyeon Kim, and behind Danthai Boonma from Thailand on 25.
Higa, who now sits in second place on the Asian Tour Order of Merit, also produced solid stats across the other major categories: ranking 11th in Scrambling (73.68%), 13th in Driving Distance (293.1 yards), T14 in Fairways Hit (85.71%) and T24 in GIR (73.61%).
Scott Vincent from Zimbabwe, the Asian Tour Order of Merit leader, tied second with Canadian Richard T. Lee helped by strong approach play that saw him ranked T7 in GIR with 77.78%. He only made three bogies for the week and his a Scrambling percentage of 93.75% topped this category. His other stats for the week were impressively consistent: Driving Distance T11 (293.3 yards), Putts per Round T15 (28), Putts per GIR 22nd (1.714), and Fairways Hit T38 (80.36%).

Lee’s short game stood out in his stats, ranking second in Scrambling with 89.47% which enabled him to top the Fewest Bogies or Worse category with only two bogies during the 72 holes. His putting also ranked highly with 27 Putts per Round (5th) and 1.679 Putts per GIR (T11). Except for a wayward drive on the 72nd hole of the tournament Lee also drove it well. He was eighth in Driving Distance with 296.3 yards while hitting 85.71% of the Fairways (T14).
Statistics Categories leaders at the 41st Shinhan Donghae Open (of players making the cut):
- Putts per Round – Hideto Tanihara (JPN): 25.5
- Putts per GIR – Kazuki Higa (JPN): 1.566
- GIR – Younghan Song (KOR): 84.72%

Lee Chieh-po competes in the Yeangder TPC this week on home soil, saying he is a much stronger player after playing on the LIV Golf League this season.
He’s the first player from Chinese-Taipei to play on the multi-million dollar franchise and despite not performing well enough to keep his playing privileges for next year the experience has clearly been priceless.
“It’s been a very good challenge for me,” said the 30-year-old, “playing alongside many top players in the world at so many great courses over the season. I would say it has helped honed my skills, both technically and mentally.”
He finished in 47th place on the LIV Rankings – excelling in Hong Kong and Chicago, tying for 12th and 13th respectively.
“I think I’m a better player now. I loved the challenge to be honest. After this season, I think I’ve grown a lot for sure. I hope I can do better next year.”

After a globetrotting 2025 playing LIV, this week marks his first appearance on the Asian Tour this season.
“At the start of the LIV season, I was trying my best to get used to the different conditions we play as the golf courses are very different from what we play in Asia. The pin positions are tough too,” he said.
“I came back to Taiwan to make some changes to my clubs, just to tackle the fast greens and to create more spin which will allow me to attack the pins better.
“After every two events, I’ll do a reflection on my performance and make some adjustments accordingly. I think I’ve improved a lot over the last six months. Most of the golf courses on LIV are difficult for me. But I got used to it eventually and managed to find some momentum towards the end which was good.”
Lee won this week’s event back in 2021 during the global pandemic when it was played as a domestic tournament.
He explained: “I specifically picked this week for my comeback on Tour as this is a special event to me, playing at a venue where I’m very familiar. I look forward to playing this week, as well as the remainder of the season, with the new techniques I’ve learnt.
“My game is feeling great right now. After LIV season ended, I took three weeks off to do some physical training to prepare myself for the remainder of the Asian Tour this year.”
He won twice last year, first the International Series Thailand for his maiden title on the Asian Tour and then the LIV Golf Promotions event at the end of season – which earned him a place on the League.
This week we will see just how far his game has progressed and if he can add more trophies to a cabinet that will no doubt be filled with silverware over the coming seasons.
When Thailand’s Suteepat Prateeptienchai proclaims his love for Taiwan, it comes straight from the heart and is backed by results. Story from the 2024 Yearbook.
The 31-year-old produced a masterclass of frontrunning at the Linkou International Golf and Country Club and secured a two-shot, wire-to-wire win at the Yeangder TPC.
It was his second Asian Tour win on the island in less than a year, as 10 months earlier he had claimed the Taiwan Glass Taifong Open – some 180 kilometres south, in dominating fashion by four shots.
Remarkably, a few months after winning the Yeangder event he would return to successfully defend his Taiwan Glass Taifong Open crown, completing a rare hat-trick of titles in the same country.
However, the Yeangder TPC was by far the biggest win for the Thai star. This time, apart from the omnipresent Taiwanese wind, he also had to battle John Catlin – the in-form American leading the Asian Tour Order of Merit with two early wins in the season.

Catlin promised to spoil Suteepat’s party with five successive birdies in his first five holes – and six in his first seven holes – on Sunday.
In that stretch of seven holes, Suteepat made just one birdie – on the par-four third hole – but that was enough to keep his nose ahead of the charging Catlin, who had started the final round six shots behind the leader.
Miguel Tabuena, at 16-under, was his closest rival after the first three rounds, and even though the Filipino made three birdies in his first 11 holes, Suteepat maintained the two-shot advantage with three birdies of his own at that stage.
Tabuena’s (70) challenge fizzled out with bogeys on the 11th and 14th holes. Catlin (65) could only find a couple of birdies and a bogey after the hot start, which just eased the pressure on Suteepat (69), who could afford to make two bogeys coming in. He did close with a birdie on the par-five 18th hole, where he almost chipped in for an eagle for a grandstand finish.
Suteepat, who also plays on the local tour in Taiwan and had three top-10s in four starts during their season, said: “I love Taiwan! I have a lot of friends who have graduated from the Asian Development Tour to the Asian Tour. I am comfortable here and it is great fun.
“It was tough today, because of the wind and good players following me. I saw Catlin’s score and then got nervous. Got into trouble on the 15th, where I went over the green and then found a greenside bunker on the 16th. But I kept thinking I was still the leader, and I must hold on.
“This means a lot… an exemption for two years is amazing!”
The weather over the weekend was tough with wind and rain, and Catlin, who recorded his first win on the Asian Tour in April 2017 at the same tournament, felt he handled the conditions well.
“I just kept having fun and enjoying playing golf. It was windy, it was difficult, it was rainy… I think we pretty much saw every possible weather out there. I handled it pretty well. I guess my years in Europe paid off,” said Catlin, who opened up a huge lead of 1,146.83 points on the Merit list with the finish.
“I hit the ball much better today than I did on Saturday and that gave me a lot more chances. I was able to convert a couple of them and I hit a couple stone dead, which always helps.”
The 29-year-old Tabuena, who was looking for his fourth win on the Asian Tour, revealed he played the tournament with pain in his left thumb.
The in-form golfer, who came into the tournament with three top 10s in his last five starts, said: “It was good, but I was fighting a bit of pain on my left thumb again. It started on Wednesday, so I was just trying to take care of it.
“Golf is a funny sport and if you don’t focus on your actual game, you can do great things sometimes. I am happy with the way I played.”
Chinese Taipei’s Lee Chieh-po (67) was the best finisher from the home country with a solo fourth.
Korea’s latest star Yubin Jang, who was handpicked by Iron Heads GC captain Kevin Na to join his LIV Golf League team later in the year and has three wins in his home country, showed a glimpse of his massive talent when he aced the par-three eighth with an eight iron from 185 yards on Saturday.
The 22-year-old Jang eventually finished tied 20th after a disappointing double bogey on the last on Sunday.
