DUBAI, 26th October, 2025 (WAM) - Thai golfer Fifa Laopakdee was crowned the champion of the 16th Asia-Pacific Amateur Golf Championship, which concluded today at the Majlis Course at the Emirates Golf Club in Dubai. He secured the victory after a tournament that ran from October 23-26, 2025, and he earns a spot in the next Masters Tournament.
Laopakdee, 20, became the first player from Thailand to win the championship that began in 2010.
Laopakdee rallied from a six-shot deficit with a 4-under 68 and beat 16-year-old Taisei Nagasaki of Japan on the third playoff to win the Asia-Pacific Amateur, sending him to the Masters and the Open Championship next year.
