In a thrilling 37-hole final, Cameron Davis of New South Wales completed a steady comeback to defeat New Zealand's Tyler Hodge
Through 14 holes, the New Zealander Hodge had Davis, of Australia, in a 4-down hole. But by the time the two reached the halfway point, Davis had won four consecutive holes to force the match all-square.
Davis didn't take the lead at any point in the match until the 31st hole — the par-4 13th when his par won the hole to take a 1-up lead with five to play. He bogeyed the 16th and the two went to the final two holes at all-square.
