 The beautiful Black Mountain Golf Club in Wahin staged the international series Thailand for the second year in a row and once again provided plenty of birdie opportunities. One of the most impressive performances of the day came from the 57-year-old Tai, Priad Marksang. This has third into the par five closing hole he would hold out for birdie and a round of 68-4 under par. Jazz Jin Watanenon perhaps played a little better than his score would suggest. He gave himself so many opportunities. Tita Green he was outstanding. This was his tee shot at the eighth. That led to one of his birdies today and with still a couple of holes to go, he was in five under par. Khiradek Apibhanrat is clearly delighted to be back home amongst old friends on the Asian tour. Just about made this birdie out the fifth. He was on six under, coming towards the end of his round. Nititon Tipong finished spectacularly this at the 17th. Straight in for his second eagle of the day. He too is on six under par. The same mark as the impressive young Hong Kong player, Taiichi Ko, and he too found the secret of the 188-yard par three eighth. A 66 for Ko today, six under par. Andrew Dot didn't give himself the easiest third shot on the 18th, but he played it quite beautifully. Nearly holding out. He took up the birdie though. Like birdie the last three. 66 for six under for Dot. But the man out in front is Miguel Tabuena of the Philippines. This is his third at the 18th. He would hold the putts for birdie and a splendid round of 64. Four birdies on each side, nor a bogey on the card. And the man who only just kept his card last year leads in Thailand by two. Tabuena 64 is the man at the top of the leaderboard.
