For the novelty contests, Siw Tong Seng hit the longest drive on the 10th hole with a distance of 239 meters. Rastam Ariffin came closest to the pin on hole 12 with his ball coming to rest 8 feet 11 inches from the hole. It was a closely contested fight for the nearest to line contest which ended up with 3 players all having their drives impressively rest on the line. The 3, Ismail Abu, Samsul Jaihan and Hisa Araki all walked away with Under Armour products for their impressive feat.
