LONDON: Two young Saudi golf fans had a day they will never forget at this year’s Saudi International after their hero Bryson DeChambeau gifted them money-can’t-buy goodies after completing his final round of the tournament.
Friends Khalid Almodaimeegh, 10, and Nasser Altorki, 14, followed the big-hitting American across all 18-holes of Royal Greens Golf & Country Club in King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC) on Sunday as he fought to climb the leaderboard on the tournament’s closing day.
It wasn’t to be in the end for DeChambeau – famed for the colossal distance he gets in his shots – as he failed to clawback runaway champion Dustin Johnson.

Saudi Arabian transport minister Saleh Al-Jasser has announced that the contractor will bear the costs of repairing Haramain High-Speed Railway station in Jeddah, after a fire broke out in the station in October 2019.
The Minister was visiting the site of the incident on Saturday.
Al Jasser says the contractor will complete the repairs before the next Haj season and that it is proceeding at an accelerated pace.
The countdown has begun for the resumption of service of Haramain High-Speed Train between Makkah and Madinah via Jeddah Airport station and the King Abdullah Economic City of Rabigh.
The Kingdom’s telecom regulatory authority stated that the initiative comes within the framework of the integration of joint governmental efforts, in addition to the continuous efforts of telecommunications companies to support the continuity of the work of government agencies in confronting the coronavirus pandemic.
