I just welcomed a baby girl in May and you start to feel that golf is not everything. That kind of eases the pressure and it worked for me this week,\u201d said Singh, who won US$13,125.<\/p>\n<p>It was a relatively quiet round for Singh compared to his previous days\u2019 scores of 64, 63 and 67 as he returned with two birdies and one double bogey on the par four 10th hole when his approach shot to the green got plugged in the greenside bunker.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had to concentrate on my own game which was much harder because I was struggling with my ball striking. I missed a lot of fairways and this course will get tougher when you do that. I was still happy with the way I hung in there. I think my short game was fantastic,\u201d said the 31-year-old, Singh, who played on a sponsor\u2019s invitation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been working really hard for a long time. It is good to know my game is heading in a positive direction. I hope this is the first of many. I didn\u2019t make it easy on myself and I know it wasn\u2019t going to be easy winning outside of India. It is a little bit extra special when the win is abroad,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Playing on the same flight as Singh, Choat, who has been playing on the Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI) for the last four years, admitted that it was a tough task of chasing Singh\u2019s lead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wanted to make a lot of birdies but I got off to a slow start. When we started making birdies on the back nine, we could see that the pressure was getting to him (Singh). He still had a huge lead so it was in his advantage,\u201d said Choat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was good fun. He played really well and defended his lead. I was just trying to concentrate on my own game but it was always going to be a big task to run down the lead,\u201d added the Australian.<\/p>\n<p>Filipino Lascuna, who equalled the course record of 63 in the third round, was delighted with his finish where he birdied the last hole in front of a cheering crowd.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was good fun and I\u2019m not disappointed with how I finish. Singh had a huge lead and it was tough to chase him down. All in all, I enjoyed this tournament. The course was fantastic and the tournament was well run,\u201d said Lascuna, an Asian Tour regular.<br \/>Leading final round scores<br \/>266 &#8211; Sujjan SINGH (IND) 64-63-67-72<br \/>272 &#8211; Michael MOORE\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 (AUS) 69-68-69-66, Antonio LASCUNA (PHI) 72-69-63-68, Anthony CHOAT (AUS) 67-74-63-68<br \/>275 &#8211; Rory HIE (INA) 66-70-71-68, Zaw MOE (MYN) 69-69-68-69<br \/>276 &#8211; KIM Gi-whan (KOR) 71-70-70-65<br \/>277 &#8211; Tim STEWART (AUS) 69-69-72-67<br \/>278 &#8211; Pijit PETCHKASEM (THA) 70-70-68-70, Anura Rohana (SKL) 72-65-69-72<br \/>279 &#8211; Mars PUCAY (PHI) 72-70-68-69, Jay BAYRON (PHI) 70-71-65-73<br \/>280 &#8211; CHOO Tze Huang (SIN) 70-71-72-67<br \/>281 &#8211; Grant JACKSON (ENG) 73-70-71-67, Rattanon WANNASRICHAN (THA) 72-69-70-70<br \/>282 &#8211; Pawin INGKHAPRADIT (THA) 71-72-72-67, Will YANAGISAWA (USA) 71-71-69-71<br \/>283 &#8211; James LAM (PHI) 69-73-72-69, Charles HONG (PHI) 71\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 -71-71-70<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pasuruan, East Java, Indonesia: Sujjan Singh of India completed a sensational wire-to-wire victory with a closing even-par 72 and dedicated his win at the Taman Dayu Championship to his new born daughter on Saturday.
