A total of 12 Australians have come through the past fortnight of sectional qualifying to book a spot at Final Stage at Lakeview Resort and Golf Club in Hua Hin starting Wednesday, where the top 35 finishers over five rounds will secure full playing rights on the 2023 Asian Tour.

Seven Aussies advanced across two venues on Saturday along with Kiwis James Hydes and Nick Voke.

Working with Bradley Hughes and riding the confidence of his second Gippsland Super 6 triumph in December, Power Horan finished two clear at Springfield Royal Country Club.

The 54-hole leader closed with a three-under-par 68 to win with a 12-under par total from Korean Teayang Jung.

An opening round of six-under 66 set amateur Hydes up for a strong week, the 2022 Australian Amateur runner-up under par each day to comfortably secure one of the qualifying berths.

Unlike Hydes, Sydney’s John Lyras had to fight his way back after a nervy 76 on day one, finishing tied 12th alongside Queenslander Doug Klein with subsequent rounds of 66-69-69.

Charlie Dann’s third round of seven-under 65 propelled him inside the number needed to qualify, he and fellow Queenslander Dylan Perry finishing tied 19th to secure one of the final spots on offer.

Nick Voke saved his best for last at Thana City Country Club, a final round of eight-under 64 resulting in a tie for 11th at Section D.

Queensland PGA champion Aaron Wilkin posted 66-68 in the final two rounds to end the week tied for 16th as Doeun An also clinched one of the 25 spots available, finishing tied 21st.
