Hello everyone and welcome back. It's the 2026 Asia Open final round action. Final nine holes in fact. We're in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

If you've got that kind of power, I don't see a lot of people trying to go up the middle. There's obviously a lot of things that you can get caught up on and really just the play is out to the right.
