Jeev Milkha Singh made two massive putts for birdies on the 16th and 17th holes to score a full point over veteran Miguel Angel Jimenez and help Asia clinch the Royal Trophy for the second time in six editions.

Jeev’s effort tied the match at 8-8 and, in the first sudden death play-off, the Korean duo of KT Kim and YE Yang defeated Ryder Cup hero Nicolas Colsaerts and Francesco Molinari as Naomichi ‘Joe’ Ozaki’s Asian team grabbed the Royal Trophy at the end of three exciting days at The Empire Hotel & Country Club.
