It was only his second victory since turning professional seven years ago.
The first success he tasted was winning the Leopalace21 Myanmar Open in 2017, which sealed him a two-year exemption on the
JGTO.
However, Sinnott made little impact the first two seasons.
He did not return to Japan again until last year after his career progress was halted by a career threatening back injury which
side-lined him nearly the entire 2019 season.
And just when was prepared to make a comeback, the COVID-19 pandemic prevented him from doing so.
On his return last year, Sinnott again struggled to put together a string of consistent results but he did register a pair of respectable
results of tied-21st and tied-16th at the Japan Open and ANA Open respectively.
Sinnott contested in the Qualifying Tournament in December and was ranked 30th in the standings.
“With a Q-School category, I hope to play everything that I can get into. Hopefully I can re-rank well after the first or eight events and
see more action in the later part of the season,” said Sinnott.
