Indians slip as Woods triumphs

Dubai: Jeev Milkha Singh shot a rollercoaster one-under 71 to settle for a tied 19th finish, while Jyoti Randhawa’s two-under 70 in the final round earned him a share of the 30th position in the Dubai Desert Classic here on Sunday.

The third Indian in the fray, Shiv Kapur, turned in his worst card of the week – 75 – to tumble from an overnight tied fifth position to finish tied 25th with a total of four-under 285.

Jeev signed off a shot ahead of Kapur, while Randhawa ended with two-under 286.

American Tiger Woods clinched the title by one stroke by turning in a sizzling seven-under 65 in the final round to total 14-under 274. The World No. 1 reeled off nine birdies against two bogeys to emerge champion. German Martin Kaymer (66) took the second spot, a stroke ahead of overnight leader South African Ernie Els (71) who was tied for the third spot. — PTI
