Wade Ormsby Wins Jakarta International Championship in Playoff, Secures Fifth Asian Tour Title

News summary

Wade Ormsby of Australia secured a dramatic victory at the Jakarta International Championship on the Asian Tour by defeating Zimbabwe's Scott Vincent in a sudden-death playoff. Both players finished the regular rounds tied at 12-under-par, but Vincent's approach shot landed in the water on the first playoff hole, allowing Ormsby to clinch the win with a routine par. Ormsby's victory marked his fifth Asian Tour title and second on the International Series, overcoming a one-shot penalty for accidentally moving his ball in the prior round. Despite not playing his best golf and enduring a challenging season, Ormsby credited hard work, coaching support, and composure, dedicating the win to his late father. The tournament featured a tightly packed leaderboard with several players narrowly missing the playoff, including Vincent's brother Kieran and other notable competitors. This win boosted Ormsby's position to fifth on the Asian Tour Order of Merit and third on the International Series Rankings, with the tour moving next to Manila for the following event.
