SCOTT VINCENT’S season has boiled down to one last push.
The Zimbabwean star is back on familiar ground, chasing another shot at the LIV Golf League, and he’s right where he needs to be.
He leads the International Series Rankings going into the final event, the PIF Saudi International powered by SoftBank Investment Advisers at Riyadh Golf Club. Vincent goes into the week with a clear advantage. He sits on 325.59 points, putting him 40.29 points ahead of Japan’s Yosuke Asaji in second place on 285.30.
Only two tickets into LIV Golf are available through the Series and Vincent is in control of one of them.
He isn’t overthinking it.
Speaking to the Asian Tour before the season defining week, Vincent said he’s sticking to the routine that has carried him through the campaign.
“I never focus too much on leaderboard, to me it is more important to concentrate on every single shot, to make sure I give it my best.
“I practice this every day, and I try to stay in the moment during my practice so I can do the same out on the golf course. Of course there will be competition out there, but I can’t really worry too much about that, I just need to trust in my process and continue to try and improve and get better every day and every time I stand over the golf ball,” he said.
A strong finish this week would seal his return to the big league.
Vincent previously spent two seasons with Iron Heads GC after winning the International Series race in 2022. The door is open for him again, and this time he arrives as the form man. His consistency has also pushed him up the Asian Tour Order of Merit.
After the Taiwan Glass Taifong Open, Vincent stands second on 1 793.96 points, chasing leader Kazuki Higa who sits on 1 951.23.
