Wang, with a two shot lead over playing partner Meeks and Wastle playing the final hole, had to fight for the title after his three wood tee shot found a watery grave in the large lake that guards the entire right side of the hole.

He took a drop from the edge of the lake, hit his third with a seven iron short of the green, chipped up and was forced to hole from seven feet for victory.

"I have played the 18th terribly all week," said Wang, who finished a foot away from going into the water in round three. "My tee shot was bad but my approach was even worse – I think that was my worst shot all week. I hit it fat and thought it was also going into the water. I was very nervous."

Wang carded a one-under-par 71 to take the first place cheque of US$40,375 with a four round aggregate of six-under-par 282. Meeks, who nearly made a 25 foot birdie putt on the last to force a play off, returned a 71, while Wastle ended with a 70. "It's the first win of the year on the Omega Tour by a Taiwanese player so it's a great moment for me," said Wang.

Wang had started the final round sharing the lead with compatriot Tseng Wen-chi and appeared to be coasting after leading the tournament on eight under by three strokes from Meeks with four to play.

He slipped up with bogies on 15 and 16 and birdied 17 before the drama on 18.

Taiwan's Hsieh Yu-shu and Chen Liang-hsi placed joint fourth on four under with rounds of 69 and 70 respectively.

The Omega Tour heads to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, next week for the US$200,000 Volvo Masters to be played at Kelab Golf Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah from 13th -16th November.
