Sentosa (Singapore), Feb 29: Rahil Gangjee was the only Indian to find a place in the Asian Tour Order of Merit’s top 20, placed at the eighth spot in the latest list released here Monday.
Gangjee has earnings of USD 80,882. The list is topped by Australian Marcus Fraser (USD 5,16,260) followed by Filipino Miguel Tabuena (U,SD 310,658). The Korea duo of Soomin Lee and Younghan Song took the third and fourth spot on USD 3,09,970 and USD 2,12,347 respectively on the money list.
Shiv Kapur, a one-time Asian Tour winner, is occupying the 41st position and is hoping to take the positives from his Perth outing where he finished tied 29th after closing with a 72 Sunday.
There have been lots of positive in the game. There are two big weeks coming up in India and Thailand. I hope my game will be peaking by then,” said Kapur, who has earnings of USD 18,377, in a release Monday.
“I’m happy with the way I’ve been driving the ball. I’m going to take rest this week, try to get the shoulder 100 per cent and come back fighting in Thailand,” added the 34-year-old Indian.
