Bogeys push Lahiri to tied 10th in final round, Chawrasia finishes 68th

KUALA LUMPUR: Anirban Lahiri brought home a card of one-under 71 in the final round to sign off tied 10th at CIMB Classic and make a good start to the new season on the PGA Tour, here.

Lahiri did not quite manage the kind of a low round he had envisaged for the final day but he managed a Top-10 finish after aggregating 13-under 275.

Starting the day at 12-under, Lahiri carded four birdies and three bogeys in the final round at TPC Kuala Lumpur to slip to tied 10 from overnight sixth. SSP Chawrasia (75) slipped further six places and finished at 68th, but the big relief for the two-time Hero Indian Open champion, was that he did not slip on the Asian Tour Order of Merit.
