Skaik shifts focus to AD Challenge after European Tour event epic

Gulf Today

April 15, 2025

The UAE's Ahmad Skaik is eager to build on the momentum from his historic outing at the UAE Challenge as he turns his focus to this week's Abu Dhabi Challenge (April 17-20), the concluding event of the HotelPlanner Tour's double-header in the UAE.

The 27-year-old made history as the first Emiratito make the cut in a European Tour group event, picking up the award for lowest amateur after finishing 69th at AI Zorah Golf & Yacht Club.

His remarkable performance included astunning finish to his second round on Friday, where he went birdie-birdie-eagle over the final three holes to card a five-under 67 and secure his weekend spot on the Tour for the first time.

Despite challenges in the final two rounds, including a cracked driver on day three and adjusting to the replacement club on Sunday, Skaik's full focus is on the positives from a memorable week when he tees it off at AI Ain Equestrian, Shooting & Golf Club on Thursday.
