Final Round
Final Round of the 74th Singapore Open Amateur Championship (SOAC) has ended.
India’s Yash Majmudar emerges as Men’s champion after a dramatic three-way playoff with Weerawish Narkprachar from Thailand and Isaac Lam from Hong Kong. Yash had a two-shot lead heading into the 72nd hole but unfortunately made a double bogey to enter a sudden death playoff, where he eventually made par to win the tournament.
Yash mentioned “It feels really good to win in a field with the best players from around the region. It feels great to pull it off.”
With this win, Yash has also earned a spot to compete at the International Series Singapore 2022 from 11 to 14 August at Tanah Merah Country Club.
In the women’s division, Mirabel Ting from Malaysia made it a wire-to-wire victory after recording her fourth consecutive sub-par round. Mirabel finished at eleven under par for the week, 16 shots ahead of Singapore’s Hailey Loh who finished in second place. Mirabel was grateful to her supporters “I would like to thank Malaysia Golf Association, my parents and supporters for their belief in me.”
Congratulations to all winners and we look forward to welcoming you at our next event!
