After what he might term an ‘annus horribilis’ to date in 2022, Scott Hend has continued his recent improvement and at the halfway stage of the Asian Tour’s International Series Morocco at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam, the Queenslander is in a share of 3rd place and three shots behind Canadian Richard T Lee.
In recent events in Europe for Hend there have been some encouraging signs, more especially an 11th place finish in Morocco, his best finish of the year to that point and it may be that he is able to end the year on a high note.
Hend has struggled for much of the year on the DP World Tour, to the point where he has now lost playing rights in Europe. As one of the Asian Tour’s greatest money winners over his lengthy career there, however, he has returned to play a tour on which he has enjoyed significant success including ten titles, a money list win in 2016 and three other runner-up finishes on the Order of Merit.
This week’s event is one of a series supported by Liv Golf Investments in their partnership with the Asian Tour and carries a purse of US$1.5 million.
Todd Sinnott is the next best of the Australians in a share of 9th place through 36 holes.
