New Zealand golfer Nick Voke has won the final event on the PGA Tour China series at Clearwater Bay Open to secure his 2019 Web.com Tour card.
The 23-year-old Aucklander fired a final-round three-under 67 to finish 14-under for the tournament, three shots clear of Englishman Callum Tarren.
The result means he finishes third on the order-of-merit standings, despite playing only five events in China, nine fewer than the two players above him.
Voke had four birdies and a bogey in the final round to record a fourth straight score in the 60s.
"It's been a really awesome run of golf and I'm really excited to see what I do in the next couple of years," said Voke. "This win means a hell of a lot, to be honest with you.
"The first couple of victories, I managed to come from behind, so to come out here with a five-shot lead and know that everyone is chasing me, it's a different sort of victory.
"I'm very proud with how I handled myself, and how I went out and played today. It's absolutely the greatest pro week I've had so far."
The win was his third in 35 days, after victories in Qinhuangdao and Macau last month.
Meanwhile, fellow Kiwi Lydia Ko had a poor final round to finish in a share of 11th place at the KEB Hana Bank Championship in Korea.
Ko shot a two-over 74 to finish the tournament at eight-under, eight shots adrift of Korean winner In Gee Chun.
She started the final round two shots back in fourth place, but two bogeys in her opening five holes all but ended her chances at claiming the title.
