5 things we learned at the Bangabandhu Cup Golf Open


Dhaka, Bangladesh, April 8: Here’s five takeaways from the Bangabandhu Cup Golf Open where Sadom Kaewkanjana lifted his maiden Asian Tour victory.

  • Sadom Kaewkanjana became the fastest Qualifying School graduate to win on the Asian Tour following his victory at the Bangabandhu Cup Golf Open where he made his first start in his rookie season. The record was previously held by Australian duo Kane Webber and Todd Sinnott who won in their second starts after coming through the Qualifying School in 2006 and 2017 respectively.
  • Sadom first played at the Kurmitola Golf Club as an amateur four years ago. He came in second at the 30th Bangladesh Amateur Golf Championship.
  • Sadom would become the third Thai after Thitiphun Chuayprakong (2016) and Jazz Janewattananond (2017) to win the National Open of Bangladesh.
  • Zamal Hossain Mollah emerged as the best-placed Bangladeshi for the second year straight after closing with a 65 to finish in tied-10th position. He enjoyed a tied-fourth place finish last year.
  • Since joining the play-for-pay ranks last December, Sadom has broke through on the Asian Development Tour (ADT) and the Asian Tour and also claimed two top-10 finishes on his domestic circuit.
