The final round of the Perth International saw the chasing pack in need of early birdies to challenge the three shot lead of Thorbjorn Olesen.
Mark Foster sat four off the Dane's lead and he went close to eagling the third. The Englishmen finishing on -12 with a final round 69.
James Morrison sat in outright second overnight and he looked in good touch early on. Here setting up a birdie at the par 5 7th. Although he would card for a one over 71 & sit off the leaders.
The one remaining challenge came from the ever cool Victor Dubuisson.
The Ryder Cup star sat two shots off Olesen's lead at the turn, then the Dane dropped two shots & a pin point tee shot at the 12th gave the Frenchman a birdie and a share of the lead.

The World No 22 Dubuisson knowing he needed to shoot low, had this eagle attempt fall short at 15.
And with Dubuisson's round already complete, Olesen had three for the win at the last.
The Dane claiming the title with a final score of -17 and a first title win for over two years and his seventh career win in total.
