Sami Valimaki

Sami Valimaki settled for second at the Joburg Open but received a nice consolation prize, a spot in the field for the 151st Open, next summer. 

Sami Valimaki recorded his first top 10 of the season and his first since December 2020 over the weekend at the DP World Tour's BMW International Open, where he was solo fourth at 18-under 270, four shots behind playoff winner Haotong Li.

Sami Valimaki has been given the Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year award for the 2020 campaign. 

Sami Valimaki has his eyes on winning Rookie of the Year ahead of his debut at this week's DP World Tour Championship.
