Jeev Milkha Singh's [Images] terrific run over the last few weeks continued as the Indian finished a creditable tied second in the USD 600,000 SK Telecom Open at the Sky 72 golf course in Seoul on Sunday.

Jeev was three shots behind first-time winner, Prom Meesawat, who finally underlined his great potential with a maiden win on the Asian Tour.

Meesawat, co-leader after 36 holes, added a final round of 68 despite two bogeys in last three holes to finish at 15-Under 201 in a tournament reduced to 54 holes following a washout of the third round.

Jeev, winner of the Volvo China Open last month, struck a final round of two-under 70 to finish at 12-under 204 and in a tie for second with Korean Lee Seung Ho (70).

The two picked up a little over USD 50,000 each, while Meesawat pocketed USD 120,000 for the win.

India's Harmeet Kahlon (75) was tied 43rd and Amandeep Johl (71) was tied 47th.

"It was a little disappointing on the final day, but hats off to Prom for some great golf. He deserves this maiden win," said Jeev, whose latest cheque has extended his lead at the top of UBS Order of Merit.

Jeev with USD 442,526 is more than USD 100,000 ahead of second placed Charlie Wi of Korea, who has USD 329,758. Jeev is in a position to cross half a million mark this season.

"I am happy that I am playing well enough to be in contention more often," added Jeev, who now has four top-10 finishes in his last five starts.
