Basingstoke, Hants (Feb 19, 2023) – Thorbjorn Olesen surged through the field with a faultless eight under par on moving day at the Thailand Classic placing himself two shot ahead going into the final day, and proceeded to keep the field at bay completing his second consecutive bogey free round closing out the tournament with rounds of 67-67-64-66.
