LIVE: WA Open final round

Tasmanian Simon Hawkes has just teed off in the final round as he seeks to close out victory at the Nexus Advisernet/Bowra & O’Dea WA Open at Joondalup Country Club.

Awarded to the WA Open champion, the Roy Paxton Bowl carries names such as Greg Norman, Kel Nagle, Gary Player, Graham Marsh and Ian Baker-Finch.

Terry Gale is a six-time WA Open champion and will be on hand for the official presentations to present the Terry Gale Cup to the leading amateur.

Following three successive rounds of 5-under 67, Hawkes is in prime position to add to his only previous victory on the Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia, the 2018 Vic Open.
