Australian golfer Nick Cullen stumbled to his first professional title on Sunday, winning the $1 million Enjoy Jakarta Indonesian Open — the first event of this year’s OneAsia schedule. The left-hander carded a two-over-par 74 to hold off a brave challenge from David Smail, pipping the New Zealand player to victory by just one shot. “This means the world to me,” 27-year-old Cullen said afterwards in comments released by tournament organisers. “I have been practicing hard and playing well but I didn’t know what to expect when I came here. “It is only my second time playing in Asia and it’s very different compared with playing at home particularly with a different climate and food.” Cullen looked to be cruising to victory with five holes to play, leading the chasing pack by four shots.
