Shiv finishes seventh

Jakarta: A couple of bogeys in the front nine proved costly for young Shiv Kapur managed an average one-under 71 to slip three rungs to finish tied seventh with a tally of 11 under 277, after the fourth and final round of the $1 million Indonesia Open here on Sunday.

Britain's Simon Dyson lifted the trophy with a brilliant 20-under 268.

Meanwhile Rahil Gangjee ended at the 19th position with an eight-under 280, slipping eleven rungs. On the other hand Jeev Milkha Singh improved his position with seven birdies to end the round with an awesome nine-under 63 to finish in the tied 40 scoring an overall five-under 283.

But Jyoti Randhawa had a forgettable outing slipping even further to manage a one-under 287 finish. — UNI
