Vincent stays patient to remain on top of leaderboard in Rabat

Scott Vincent was rewarded for showing the patience befitting a saint, making a late birdie on the 17th hole that edged him ahead by one shot at the end of the third round in the US$2 million (RM8.4m) International Series Morocco. At the par-73 Royal Golf Dar Es Salam course on Saturday, the Zimbabwean started the penultimate round leading by two shots, and despite a solid day of ball striking, his putter refused to cooperate. Vincent made only two birdies in a bogey-free round of two-under par 71 and stayed ahead of the fast-charging Thai Settee Prakongvech (67), who closed with a disappointing bogey. China's Bobby Bai matched Settee's 67 and took possession of third place on the leaderboard at nine-under par total. The Aussie duo of Jack Buchanan (68) and Maverick Antcliff (72), American Austen Truslow (69) and Thai Suteepat Prateeptienchai (71) were in a tie for fourth place at eight-under. Two-time International Series champion, American Peter Uihlein (72) made a bogey on the last hole to slip and join China's Yanwei Liu (71) in tied eighth place. Vincent's was one of only two bogey-free rounds of the day, a clear indicator that the course was playing difficult, but the 33-year-old Denver, Colorado resident was rarely in trouble. He made a birdie on the par-five fifth hole and had several looks at birdies but failed to make any apart from the chip to two feet on the drivable par-four 17th hole. On the par-four 16th, his birdie putt from 10 feet made a hard 360-degree horseshoe, and on the par-five 18th, he left it short by inches, again from 10 feet. 'It was great, a little challenging for me out there. I didn't feel like I drove it particularly well, which just made it a little harder. But all in all, it was nice, solid and steady, and always nice to play bogey-free,' said the man whose last international win was almost three years and one month ago in the 2022 International Series England.

Vincent takes two-shot lead in Rabat with Zimbabwean flair

Scott Vincent is enjoying a solid 2025 – finishing inside the top 12 in seven of his 10 worldwide starts. Playing on African soil and on a golf course that has grass imported from his home country Zimbabwe, could just be the tonic that secures his first win of the season as he took a two-shot lead at the halfway stage of the US$2 million (RM8.4m) International Series Morocco. Vincent shot a brilliant seven-under par-66 on Friday at the par-73 Royal Golf Dar Es Salam course, the best round of the tournament so far, to reach a two-day total of nine-under 137. Despite a disappointing three-putt bogey on his final hole (the ninth of the golf course) he had done enough good work to jump to the top of the leaderboard, two shots clear of Australian Maverick Antcliff (70). American Peter Uihlein (72), a two-time International Series champion last year, threatened to overtake Vincent in the evening. However, after reaching nine-under through 14 holes, he made three bogeys in his last four holes to drop down to a tie for third place at six-under par. He was joined there by the Thai Suteepat Prateeptienchai (67). Defending champion Ben Campbell made a determined move with a 68 and was tied at 141 alongside John Lyras (71) of Australia, Charlie Lindh (69) of Sweden, Ekpharit Wu (70) of Thailand and Yanwei Liu (70) of China. The cut fell at one-over par-147. Vincent started from the 10th tee, and the 33-year-old made a brace of birdies on the 11th and 12th holes, then another on the 17th and 18th, and another on the second and third to get to six-under at that point. 'It actually feels a lot like the golf courses I grew up playing on in Zimbabwe, so there's a bit of a home vibe going on. The grass is the same. Someone just told me today that they imported all the grass from Zimbabwe here, so that's kind of cool. There's definitely something about being on African soil that just feels great,' said Vincent. 'It was awesome. A lot of things went really well, so very happy about that. But tons of golf left.' Talking about his form this year, he added: 'It's just the ups and downs of golf. I think we kind of find some form, lose some form, and it's just part of what we do. 'I feel like I'm doing a lot of the same things that I've been doing for quite a few years, and maybe just tightening up on a few little things. But overall, it feels like it's the same, and I feel like I'm the same, and just doing the same things.'

Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad's (KLSE:TIENWAH) Promising Earnings May Rest On Soft Foundations

However, our analysis suggests that shareholders may be missing some factors that indicate the earnings result was not as good as it looked. Our free stock report includes 3 warning signs investors should be aware of before investing in Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad. Read for free now. For anyone who wants to understand Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad's profit beyond the statutory numbers, it's important to note that during the last twelve months statutory profit gained from RM8.4m worth of unusual items. While it's always nice to have higher profit, a large contribution from unusual items sometimes dampens our enthusiasm. When we analysed the vast majority of listed companies worldwide, we found that significant unusual items are often not repeated. Which is hardly surprising, given the name. We can see that Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad's positive unusual items were quite significant relative to its profit in the year to December 2024. All else being equal, this would likely have the effect of making the statutory profit a poor guide to underlying earnings power. Note: we always recommend investors check balance sheet strength. Click here to be taken to our balance sheet analysis of Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad. As we discussed above, we think the significant positive unusual item makes Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad's earnings a poor guide to its underlying profitability. For this reason, we think that Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad's statutory profits may be a bad guide to its underlying earnings power, and might give investors an overly positive impression of the company. But at least holders can take some solace from the 65% EPS growth in the last year. The goal of this article has been to assess how well we can rely on the statutory earnings to reflect the company's potential, but there is plenty more to consider. So while earnings quality is important, it's equally important to consider the risks facing Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad at this point in time. While conducting our analysis, we found that Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad has 3 warning signs and it would be unwise to ignore them. Today we've zoomed in on a single data point to better understand the nature of Tien Wah Press Holdings Berhad's profit. But there are plenty of other ways to inform your opinion of a company.
