The best players from Asia will bid to end their season on a high at the Asian Tour’s season-finale, the Black Mountain Masters 2010, this week in Hua Hin, Thailand.
The US$600,000 Black Mountain Masters, scheduled from December 16-19 at the Black Mountain Golf Club will be the final tournament of the year on the Asian Tour.
With the Order of Merit title already won by Korea’s Noh Seung-yul, players will either be seeking a win to improve their rankings on the Order of Merit or ensure a good finish so as to secure their Tour card for next season.

Thongchai Jaidee of Thailand, last week Johnie Walker Cambodia Open winner and 3-time Asian Tour number one, is aiming for a good finish on home soil, where the large home crowd is expected to follow him.
“The Black Mountain Masters is a great tournament and as my last tournament of the year, I’ll try my best to do well, especially in front of the home fans,” said the decorated Thai star.
Title holder Johan Edfors of Sweden will defend his Black Mountain Masters title while top stars from the Asian Tour including Singapore’s Mardan Mamat, Australia’s Marcus Fraser and India’s Jyoti Randhawa are expected to vie for the season finale title.
The Black Mountain Masters will also be a last chance for Tour hopefuls to secure their full playing rights for next season.
This year tournament’s prize fund will increase to US$600,000, with the winner taking home a cool US$95,100.
