PERTH, Australia — Thailand's Kiradech Aphibarnra­t won the World Super 6 Perth golf title, beating Australian James Nitties 2 and 1 in the match-play final.

Aphibarnra­t worked his way through three rounds of stroke play over the first three days and a series of six-hole knockout matches Sunday to reach the final.

The field was reduced to the top 65 players after 36 holes and 24 players after 54 holes. Defending champion Brett Rumsford and former world No. 1 Lee Westwood were among those who failed to qualify for the match-play rounds.
