Boonchu Ruangkit claims European Seniors event

Sun 7th, March 2010

Brunei (Sports Network) - Boonchu Ruangkit defeated Frankie Minoza in a playoff Sunday to claim the Aberdeen Brunei Senior Masters.

Ruangkit and Minoza closed with five-under 66s to finish at 14-under-par 199.

Ruangkit won with a par on the second extra hole after both players parred the first playoff hole.

"I was very nervous for the playoff, and it didn't help that the wind started to blow a little," said Ruangkit, who lost a playoff last year at the Brunei Open on the Asian Tour. "But I managed to control my nerves, and I'm just so happy to have won, although I feel a little sorry for Frankie, because he played very well today. I didn't think I could beat him, to be honest."

Chris Williams carded a three-under 68 to end alone in third at 11-under-par 202. Roger Chapman was two strokes back at minus-nine after a final-round 66.

Ruangkit flew out of the gate with a birdie on the first and an eagle on the second to move two clear of Minoza, who birdied the second, then fell three back with a bogey on the third.

Both players birdied the par-four fifth, then Minoza got back within one of the lead with birdies on eight and nine. Ruangkit briefly moved two ahead with a birdie on the 11th.

Minoza forged a tie at 14-under with birdies on 12 and 13. He dropped a shot on 14, then Ruangkit looked as though he sealed the win with a birdie on the 17th.

However, Ruangkit stumbled to a bogey on the par-four 18th, while Minoza converted a birdie try to force the extra session.

Ruangkit eventually pulled out the victory, his first on the European Senior Tour.

Sam Torrance had a 65 on Sunday and shared fifth place with Jerry Bruner, who shot a final-round 70. The pair finished at seven-under 206.
