He was also fifth at Black Mountain Masters and tied 10th in Singha Thailand Open.

Thaworn charged home with a closing three-under-par for a four-day total of 15-under-par 269 to finish six shots clear of Bhullar.

Bhullar, who was seventh at the end of the third round opened in style with a birdie-eagle-birdie to go four-under in three holes. A bogey on fifth was a bit of a setback, but he recovered with a birdie on seventh and turned in four-under 31.

He opened the back nine with a bogey on 10th and then had birdies on 13th and 15th. He was unable any more on the last three holes and finished with a 66.

Thaworn had an anxious two-hour gap when he finished his third round early this morning but that did not disrupt his concentration as he resumed his title charge by posting five birdies against two bogeys en route to his emphatic win. Thaworn won $79,250 for his victory.

Asian Tour rookie Matthew Griffin of Australia surged up the leaderboard with an eagle on the second hole to take a share of third place alongside South African Keith Horne on 278.

Thaworn's victory left him one title short of equaling compatriot's Thongchai Jaidee's record of 12 career wins on the Asian Tour but the 42-year-old is confident of surpassing his fellow countryman's record.
