Gangjee ends 8th but Kapur blows it on back nine at Jakarta

Shiv Kapur blew up a great opportunity of another great finish with a horrific six-over back nine and crashed way down on the leaderboard, while Rahil Gangjee, despite a crippling double bogey on 17th, ended tied eighth at the CIMB Niaga Indonesian Masters, here today.
Bernd Wiesberger of Austria sealed a dramatic win with a five-under-par 67 to beat a persistent Ernie Els of South Africa by one-shot.
Wiesberger won his second title in Asia courtesy of some exquisite ball striking as he totalled 15-under-par 273.
Kapur was challenging for top honours as he finished the front nine in three-under and climbed to 10-under at which point he was just two behind the leader.

Then came a double bogey on 10th and again another double bogey on 13th to be followed by a bogey-bogey finish for a 75 after a front nine of 33. From being in contention he ended in a tie for 23rd.
Gangjee was even after front nine, but birdies on 10th and 11th, brought him back in the picture for a top-5. Despite a birdie on 16th, the bogey on 13th and a double on 17th dashed his hopes and he had to be satisfied with a eighth place.
Anirban Lahiri had his own woes with a double on seventh and then a bogey-triple bogey finish for a 77 that saw him finish 35th. Ajeetesh Sandhu (76) was tied 67th at the USD 750,000 Asian Tour event at the majestic Royale Jakarta Golf Club.

Els, the reigning Open Championship winner, settled for second place after carding 68 while overnight leader Daisuke Kataoka of Japan claimed third place with a round of 70 to finish on 275. Thongchai Jaidee of Thailand was a further three shots back in fourth after registering 69.
