There were several birdie chances which I failed to take advantage of and I think that cost me today,\u201d said Rashid.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRichardson played really well all-week and he\u2019s the deserving winner,\u201d added the Malaysian.<\/p>\n<p>Launched in 2010 with the aim of creating a career pathway for professional golfers in Asia, the ADT has gained support from Corporate Asia, growing its schedule from five tournaments in the first season to eight tournaments in the 2011 season.<\/p>\n<p>The leading three players on the Asian Development Tour Order of Merit will earn coveted Asian Tour cards for the following season, ensuring a proper career pathway for aspiring professionals.<\/p>\n<p>Leading final round scores<br \/>270 &#8211; Peter RICHARDSON (ENG) 67-65-69-69<br \/>278 &#8211; Rashid ISMAIL (MAS) 67-70-71-70<br \/>279- Go NAKAUCHI (JPN) 70-69-72-68<br \/>282 \u2013 Mitchell SLORACH (SIN) 72-69-74-67, Mitsuhiko HASHIZUME (JPN) 72-70-73-67, KIM Ji-hoon (KOR) 68-71-71-72<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Malacca: England\u2019s Peter Richardson stamped his class by closing with a three-under-par 69 to win his maiden Asian Development Tour (ADT) title at the PGM ADT Masters at A\u2019Famosa by eight shots on Sunday.
