Song wins Philippine Open by seven strokes
Justin Quiban led the Filipino finishers with a total of 273, sharing eighth place at Manila Southwoods.
Korea's Minhyuk Song claimed the Philippine Open title in Carmona, Cavite, on November 15, finishing at 15-under 265 after an even-par final round. His seven-stroke winning margin matched the advantage he held entering the last round at Manila Southwoods Golf and Country Club.
Song birdied the fourth and 12th holes but gave back both strokes with a double bogey at the 15th. He made par on every other hole.
Six players shared second place at eight-under 272: Korea's Jaehyun Jung, Jeunghun Wang, Minkyu Kim and Jeongwoo Ham, and Thailand's Rattanon Wannasrichan and Sarit Suwannarut.
Justin Quiban was the highest-placed Filipino, tying for eighth with Andy Ogletree, Tawit Polthai and Yung-hua Liu on 273. After bogeys at the first and third, Quiban made birdies at the eighth, ninth, 11th and 15th, alongside a bogey at the 12th.
Sean Ramos finished joint-18th on four-under 276. Five birdies before the turn helped him move up the leaderboard, but two double bogeys and three bogeys on the back nine cost him ground. Carl Corpus was the only other Filipino under par, completing the tournament at one-under 279.
Pavit Tangkamolprasert also finished atop the Asian Tour's Order of Merit with 1,373.67 points. Australia's Travis Smyth was second on 1,225.99 points, followed by Song with 1,125.00.
