John Catlin triumphed in Bogor.

Bogor, Indonesia: American John Catlin closed with a second consecutive four-under-par 67 to seal his maiden Asian Development Tour (ADT) victory at the Combiphar Golf Invitational.

The 26-year-old Catlin, who started the day with a two-shot lead, snared four birdies en route to claiming a three-shot triumph with a 16-under 268 total at the Gunung Geulis Country Club in Bogor city.

Micah Lauren Shin, also of the United States, fired a 65 to grab a share of second place with Filipino stalwart Antonio Lascuna, who closed with a third straight 68, at the inaugural US$60,000 ADT event.

American Sam Cyr took fourth place on 273 following a 70 while Singapore’s Mitchell Slorach returned a 71 to settle two shots back in fifth.

“This win means so much to me. I have been through a lot in my life, both personally and as a professional over the last three years. So it means a lot to finally win,” said the Bangkok-based Catlin, who turned professional in 2013 and is playing in his second year in Asia.

Catlin maintained his overnight lead by nailing two birdies on the front to turn in 33. But he needed to sink a 20-foot breaking putt for birdie on 15 to tied for the lead with his fast-charging playing partner Lascuna on 15-under with three holes to play.

 Catlin kept his cool and regained the outright lead following a two-shot swing for on 16 where he made birdie and Lascuna stumbled with a bogey.

“I just kept it the same as the last three days. I just stayed patient out there. I am glad it paid off,” added Catlin, who took home the winner’s prize purse of US$10,500 and received six Official World Golf Rankiing (OWGR) points courtesy of his win.
