Thailand鈥檚 Prom seals Taiwan win in playoff
Print Edition
PROM Meesawat came from behind to grab the title at the Yeangder Tournament Players Championship yesterday with a total of 277, beating overnight leader Miguel Tabuena of the Philippines on the second extra hole.
The championship, with prize money of US$90,000, was the Thai’s second Asian Tour victory since 2006 when he captured a title in South Korea.
“I’ve been waiting for this win for a long time. I am really glad I made it,” he said at the Linkou International Golf and Country Club in Taipei.
“Hopefully I won’t have to wait another eight years to win again. I will be aiming for a third win now and try to boost my ranking on the Order of Merit.”
Nicknamed the Big Dolphin due to his burly physique, Prom forced extra time when he birdied the last hole for a 3-under-par 69 to tie with Tabuena (71) in regulation play on 11-under 277.
After shooting matching pars on the first playoff hole, Prom needed three shots to safely find the par-5 18th green before sealing the win with a two-putt par as Tabuena narrowly missed his par putt.
Filipino veteran Antonio Lascuna settled for third, one shot from joining the playoff following a 69.
Rookie Paul Peterson (69) of the United States, Daniel Chopra (72) of Sweden and India's Anirban Lahiri (73) finished tied for fourth on 280.
