GOLF / Foreign round-up
Kapur finishes joint 26th
Gleneagles (Scotland), PTI:


A final round of 70 propelled Shiv Kapur to tied 26th but Jeev Milkha Singh returned his worst card of the week to drop to the tied 53rd spot at the Johnnie Walker Championship here on Sunday. Jeev carded a five-over-par 78 for a four-day total of one-over-par 293.

Meanwhile, Marc Warren birdied the second play-off hole to beat England's Simon Wakefield and give the Scots a home victory.

Warren two-putted from 90 feet for a four after the pair had parred the 18th the first time around. Warren and Wakefield finished tied on 12-under-par 280.

Kapur shot four birdies against a lone bogey to total four-under-par 288 at the par-73 PGA Centenary course. He birdied the fourth, 11th, 12th and 16th and his only dropped shot was on the 14th. Both Kapur and Jeev struggled with their putting. While Kapur needed 32 putts despite 16 greens in regulation, Jeev had three three-putts in his 31 putts.

Jeev had two birdies on the eighth and ninth, but bogeys on the fourth, fifth, 10th, 11th and 17th besides a double bogey on the 17th ruined his day.

Chowrasia tied 16th

SSP Chowrasia rode on a quartet of birdies in his first four holes to return a final-round two-under-par 69 for a tied 16th place finish at the $300,000 Brunei Open, adds PTI from Bandar Seri Begawan.

Chowrasia, who has been struggling with his form this season, finished with a total of five-under-par 279.

The Kolkata pro was off to a brilliant start as he sand birdies on the first four holes but was pegged back by a bogey on the eighth.

Chowrasia's backward journey was going steady with a string of pars before he ended the day on a disappointing note by stumbling to a bogey on the 18th.

His 16th place finish, however, was good enough to keep him at 60th on the Asian Tour Order of Merit. The position is the cut off line for Volvo Masters of Asia and for keeping the card for the 2008 season.

Meanwhile, Chinese Taipei's Lin Wen-tang overcame a six-shot deficit to lift the title over a faltering Adam Le Vesconte of Australia.

Lin produced a stunning six-under-par 65 in the final round at the Empire Hotel and Country Club to claim his second Asian Tour title by two strokes from overnight leader Le Vesconte, who carded a two-over-par 73.
