Knutzon wins as Harrington joint fifth

AMERICAN Jason Knutzon birdied the last two holes to win the $275,000 Macau Open by one stroke with Pádraig Harrington finishing in joint fifth place.

Knutzon fired a closing four-under-par 67 at Macau Golf and Country Club to seal his maiden Asian Tour triumph over Thaworn, who finished with a superb round of 65.

Overnight leader Amandeep Johl of India and Taiwan's Lu Wen-teh finished joint third, with Harrington and last year's runner-up Scott Barr of Australia sharing fifth.
