Yokohama (Japan), Oct 12 (PTI) Indian-origin American golfer Sahith Theegala shot a final round of 1-over 72 to finish tied-27th at the Baycurrent Classic here.

Theegala, a one-time winner on the PGA Tour, looked solid on the first two days with rounds of 68-67, but faltered after that with 70-72 as he totalled 7-under 277 at the Yokohama Country Club.

He shared the lead early in the third round before slipping thereafter. Xander Schauffele, who won the Olympic gold in Tokyo, shot 7-under 64 once again in Japan - a country where his mother grew up and where he has many connections.

Schauffele totalled 19-under 265 over four rounds and finished one shot ahead of American Max Greyserman, who was the runner-up for the second straight year and is still chasing his first PGA TOUR title.
