Newlywed Johan Edfors plans to produce a double celebration by successfully defending his US$600,000 Black Mountain Masters title starting in Hua Hin, Thailand, tomorrow.
With Christmas around the corner, the big-hitting Swede (pictured) is eager to peak at the Black Mountain Golf Club and ensure that he enjoys a memorable finish to the season.
A stellar field featuring eight of the top-10 stars from the Order of Merit has gathered for the Asian Tour's season finale, headlined by Thailand's Thongchai Jaidee, fresh from a record 13th career victory in Cambodia, countryman Thaworn Wiratchant, Japan's Tetsuji Hiratsuka, Australian Marcus Fraser and Sweden's Rikard Karlberg.
There will also be a sprinkling of European stars in the tournament with Finland's Mikko Ilonen, Pelle Edberg and Alexander Noren, both from Sweden, shooting for the US$95,100 top prize this week.
After getting married two weeks ago, Edfors knows another victory would put the icing on the cake. 'It would be nice, definitely,' the 35-year-old Swede said.
'This is one of my favourite courses in the world and I usually score pretty well here.
'I hope to get off to my normal standard and should be dangerous come Sunday.'
