Singh seals victory

India’s Jeev Milkha Singh won his first tournament in seven years in the Volvo China Open today.

Singh started the day one shot behind overnight leader David Lynn, but fired a two-under-par 70 at Honghua International Golf Club.

He finished one stroke ahead of Spain’s Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano, who also carded a closing 70, with Lynn a further shot behind in third after a 73.

Singh fired four birdies and two bogeys, the second of those coming as he three-putted the 18th.

Defending champion Paul Casey, who started the final round two shots off the pace, carded a closing 72 to finish three shots back in a tie for fourth.
