Scott Hend wins Thai Classic

Australia’s Scott Hend held off a brilliant challenge from Thailand’s Piya Swangarunporn to win the True Thailand Classic and make amends for last year’s near-miss.

Hend carded a closing 68 at Black Mountain Golf Club to finish 18 under par, one shot ahead of world number 798 Swangarunporn, who had surged through the field with a course-record 63.

"Get me a towel!"

How about a trophy instead? Congratulations Scott Hend, winner of the 2016 #ThailandClassic. https://t.co/Wym1yFcRtP
