Chinese Taipei's Chan Shih-chang realised his dream of winning his first Asian Tour title after a final round three-under-par 67.
Jeev Milkha Singh ended his streak of missed cut with his first top-10 finish since March this year, as he ended with a round of 69, his third successive round in 60s at the King's Cup presented by PTT Group in Pattaya (Thailand) on Sunday.
As Jeev finished at six-under for the week, another player scoring well on the final day for a decent upward move was Shiv Kapur with a week's best of 67 that took him to tied 24th place at two-under. S Chikkrangappa, who had a good week dropped on Sunday with a round 72 and was tied 15th. Chiragh Kumar (70), Olympic bound SSP Chawrasia (71), Gaganjeet Bhullar (78) slipped to tied 37th, tied 43rd and tied 66th, while Shubhankar Sharma (72) was tied 75th.
It was a tough finish for Bhullar after starting the week with a 65 and ending with 78.
Chinese Taipei's Chan Shih-chang realised his dream of winning his first Asian Tour title after a final round three-under-par 67.
Having already won five times on the Asian Development Tour (ADT), Chan knew a win on the Asian Tour was long overdue and was clearly ecstatic when he compiled a four-day total of 12-under-par 268 to win the USD 750,000 event by two shots.
Compatriot Lin Wen-tang was also all smiles despite finishing second with a 66 at the Phoenix Gold Golf and Country Club. Thailand's Danthai Boonma came close to retaining the King's Cup on home soil but faltered after a closing 64 left him three shots back of Chan where he would finish in tied-third with England's Mark Foster.
Victory was especially sweet for Chan as he became the second player from Chinese Taipei after Chan Yih-shin in 2009 to win the King's Cup. The 30-year-old also dashed the hopes of the local faithful as the King's Cup will not be kept on home soil for the first time since 2009.
