Josele Ballester Crowned Champion at the Saudi International

Spanish golfer Josele Ballester secured his first professional victory by winning the Saudi International with an impressive final round of 6 under par, finishing the tournament with a total of 22 under par and a three-stroke lead.

This event, which marked the closing of the Asian Tour International Series, saw Ballester demonstrate his skill on the course, securing a significant triumph in his career.

Scott Vincent from Zimbabwe and Yosuke Asaji from Japan stood out by securing the two available spots for LIV Golf next year, thanks to their performance in the ranking.

Ballester, who was part of the Fireballs team in LIV Golf last summer, after his time in college golf at Arizona State, showed his potential with two top-ten finishes in his six appearances.

Caleb Surratt (69) finished in second place, while Anthony Kim (70) tied for fifth position, eight strokes behind the leader, marking his best result since his return to golf in LIV last year, after a twelve-year hiatus.
