Overnight leader Thaworn Wiratchant of Thailand shot a 1-over 73 to win the Indonesian Open by one stroke and seal his 15th victory in the region on Sunday.
After opening with rounds of 68, 68 and 66, the 44-year-old Thaworn closed with a 20-yard chip shot on No. 18 to line up his victory, leaving him with a tap-in putt for par. His 13-under total of 275 earned him $180,000 in prize money and a second Indonesian Open title.
Local favorite Rory Hie (69), defending champion Michael Hendry of New Zealand (70) and South Korea's Choi Jin-ho (71) tied for second.
Describing his win as ''an uphill battle'', Thaworn's effortless finish followed an otherwise frustrating day in which he shot three bogeys.
