The whirlwind that propelled Ryan Peake to The Open Championship has now abated and the West Australian can turn his attention to advancing his cause on the Asian Tour Order of Merit.

Peake tees it up for the first time since missing the cut at Royal Portrush at this week’s Mandiri Indonesia Open, one of 11 Australians in the field at Pondok Indah Golf Course.

Victory at the New Zealand Open in March not only gave Peake global exposure but secured playing rights on the Asian Tour due to the tournament being co-sanctioned with the Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia.

He has made just three starts since on the Asian Tour, his best result a tie for 33rd at the International Series Morocco in the lead-up to The Open and will tee off on Thursday afternoon seventh on the Asian Tour Order of Merit.

Another with Order of Merit aspirations is Minjee Lee.

Currently second on the LPGA Tour Race to CME Globe standings, Lee heads to the FM Championship in Massachusetts on the back of a runner-up finish at the CPKC Women’s Open and within reach of current No.1 Jeeno Thitikul.
