Solid Finish for Barr at Sentosa


Scott Barr fired a 3rd and final round 68 to end his campaign at the US$6million Barclays Singapore Open on a total of 6-under par and in a tie for 23rd alongside major winners Ernie Els and Y.E Yang, with tournament drawcard Phil Mickelson a further shot back on 5-under.

Barr, who was paired in the final round with 2010 US Open Champion Graeme McDowell, put together 4 birdies and just the one bogey on the last day of the rain-shortened event. This result has moved Barr up to 30th on the Asian Tour's Order of Merit with 3 events remaining for the season.

The championship was eventually won in thrilling fashion by Spains Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano who prevailed over Juvic Pagunsan in a 2-hole playoff. The Asian and Eurpoean Tour's will now go across the border to Malaysia where players will compete in this week's US$2million Iskandar Johor Open.
