Doha: Shiv Kapur and Jeev Milkha Singh finished in a tie for 38th place even as Branden Grace produced a stunning eagle on 16th and a closing birdie to grab the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters golf tournament here on Saturday.
Kapur, who was inside top-10 after the first day, shot one-over 73 on the final day with three birdies and four bogeys, to finish at five-under 283, while Jeev carded a final round of two-under 70 with three birdies and one bogey.

Three of the birdies and the stunning eagle came in last seven holes as Marc Warren (67) was left to rue his bogey on the fifth and the double bogey on? par-3 eighth as he was adrift by one shot.
Bernd Wiesberger (68) one of the co-leaders overnight was third at 17-under while Korea?s An Byeong Hun (65) with the best final round was tied fifth behind Eddie Pepperell (67).
