Ruangkit takes one-shot lead into the final round

Thai veteran Boonchu Ruangkit produced a grandstand finish with three closing birdies yesterday to take a slender one-stroke lead into the final round of the Singha E San Open.

The defending champion shot a five-under 66 for a three-round total of 14-under 199 at Victory Park Golf and Country Club.

He is a shot ahead of in-form countryman Prayad Marksaeng, who started the day three behind the overnight leader but closed the gap with a blistering 64.

Angelo Que of the Philippines, bidding for his second win on the ASEAN Golf Tour, is in third spot a further stroke behind after carding a blemish-free 66.

Thai rising star Sattaya Supupramai stayed in the hunt with an accomplished 67 to secure fourth place on 202, a shot adrift of Que.

The US$50,000 Singha E San Open in Thailand is the fifth leg of the fledgling ASEAN Golf Tour.
