Emotional Taichi beats childhood hero Watson for Morocco title
June 14: With just three bogeys in four days on a difficult golf course, Taichi Kho (main picture) added yet another feather to his cap when he secured his first International Series event and won the second title on the Asian Tour at the US$2 million International Series Morocco presented by Visit Morocco.

Kho, the 25-year-old who made history for Hong Kong by winning its first-ever gold medal in golf at the Hangzhou Games in 2023, was four-under par through 10 holes with five birdies to take sole possession of the lead, but struggled to find the sixth that would have given him the breathing space.

That birdie finally came when it was needed most – on the par-5 18th hole. Overnight leader and two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson (70), who was level with Kho after making a birdie from the bunker on the 17th hole, pulled his second shot from the fairway towards the LED screen, and could not make his up-and-down from there.

June 12: Two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson (main image) joined Thailand’s Pavit Tangkamolprasert on top of the leaderboard at the halfway stage of the US$2 million International Series Morocco presented by Visit Morocco.

The 47-year-old American put up a masterclass of shot-shaping and putting to overcome the challenges of the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam’s Red Course. A seven-under par 66 – the lowest round of the day – helped him catch Pavit, who closed with a three-under par 70 to tie at 11-under 135 total.

Captain of the RangeGoats GC in LIV Golf, Watson hit 15 of the 18 fairways and made eight birdies against a solitary bogey. The leading duo was one ahead of Korea’s Younghan Song (69, -10).

June 13: Bubba Watson (main image) overcame a late hiccup to take sole possession of the lead going into the final round of the US$2 million International Series Morocco presented by Visit Morocco.

The 47-year-old American, a two-time Masters champion and skipper of the RangeGoats GC on LIV Golf, seemed to be on cruise control on the demanding par-73 Red Course of Royal Golf Dar Es Salam as he made five birdies in his first 13 holes.

However, against the run of play, Watson made back-to-back bogeys on the 14th and 15th holes, before getting one shot back on the drivable par-4 17th hole.

Sono rimasti fuori dal playoff per un colpo lo spagnolo Alvaro Hernandez Cabezuela e il francese Paul Franquet, terzi con 210 (par), mentre il trionfo italiano è stato completato dal quinto posto con 211 (+1) di Marco Florioli e di Manfredi Manica, affiancati dall’iberico Victor Garcia Broto, e dall’ottavo con 213 (+3) di Ludovico Addabbo, che a novembre si è imposto nel PGA Aroeira Challenge sul Mena Golf Tour. Stessa posizione per l’irlandese Sam Murphy, per l’olandese Lars Keunen e per l’iberico Eduard Rousaud.
