Jazz strikes winning note
Thailand’s Jazz Janewattananond fired a blistering round of 6-under-par 65 to win the Singapore Open yesterday, while also securing a spot at the British Open for a second consecutive year. The 23-year-old carded seven birdies, including five on the front nine, to finish 18-under overall, two shots ahead of Japan’s overnight leader Yoshinori Fujimoto and world No. 24 Paul Casey. Jazz and Fujimoto both earned berths to the 148th Open Championship as two of the four top finishers not already exempt. England’s Matthew Fitzpatrick, who was making his tournament debut, signed for 69 to take outright fourth place on 14-under. Thailand’s Prom Meesawat and South Korean Mun Do-yeob finished a further five shots behind to share fifth. The pair also collected the final two qualifying spots for the year’s final major tournament, which will be played at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland from July 18-21.
