Rai wins playoff

INDIA'S Himmat Rai claimed an enthralling five-way playoff victory at the ISPS Handa Singapore Classic yesterday, holing a 25-foot birdie putt on the sixth extra hole to secure his maiden Asian Tour title. The 24-year-old went the distance with Filipino Elmer Salvador at the Orchid Country Club after Dutchman Guido van der Valk, South African Tjaart van der Walt and Brazilian Adilson Da Silva bowed out after the second playoff hole. All five players tied on 9-under 271 in regulation. Rai earned US$47,550 and a two-year exemption on the Asian Tour.
