Siddikur showing form ahead of Chattogram Open
Bangladesh's premier golfer Siddikur Rahman showed some sign of form with a 14-under-par score in the International Series Thailand, which concluded yesterday.
The 37-year-old golfer could only finish tied for 41st, but his scores of 67, 70, 65 and 72 gave some encouraging vibe ahead of the Mujib Borsho Chattogram Open, which will get underway at the Bhatiary Golf and Country Club on Wednesday.
In fact, Siddikur looked set to secure his first top-10 finish on the Asian Tour in three years after the third round, but a disappointing final round, where he went par for the course, pulled him back long way down the leaderboard.
The two-time Asian Tour winner eventually finished 12 shots behind winner Sihwan Kim of the USA with an aggregate score of 14-under-par (274) at the Black Mountain Golf Club on Sunday.
The effort saw Siddikur pocket 9045 dollars, which will improve his Order of Merit standing and give him encouragement ahead of the PGTI event in Chattogram where competition will come the PGTI players from India and Bangladesh. After the Chattogram Open, Siddikur will head to Delhi to play in the inaugural DGC Open, to be played at the Delhi Golf Club from March 24 to 27.
