Yule won by two shots from Jake Babnik (Slo) and Gary Stal (Fr) with a final round containing an impressive seven birdies and three bogeys.
Leading amateur was James Nash (Wales) on three under par in 12th place overall.
Yule said. ‘It is the first time I have been in the UAE - I absolutely love it. I holed a lot of yardage with my putter – but also had a few three putts – but in the end it tends to even itself out. This win here at Al Zorah and the Challenge Tour opportunity sets up my season nicely.’
As many as 140 players competed in the second and final leg of the UAE Clutch Pro Series, which was open to both men and women, amateurs and pros.
Dubai born Natalii Gupta won the female aggregate division for the two UAE 54-hole events. The 19 year-old amateur, plays off a +2 handicap and represents The Els Club, Dubai and gains four invites to Clutch Pro Tour events this 2024 season.

We are excited to see such events offering opportunities for both male and female golfers on our EGF calendar and we look forward to enhancing a close relationship for the good of UAE based players as well as international golfers.”
