Eagle sends Kiradech clear in Bangkok

Thailand’s Kiradech Aphibarnrat carded an eagle on the last to climb into a two-shot lead at the end of the third round of the Asian Tour International today.

The 20-year-old split the fairway from the tee on the par-five 18th before laying his approach shot to 10 feet and then sinking the eagle putt for a three-under 69, moving ahead of South Korea’s Hwang Inn-choon, who shot the day’s best score of 67.
