Justin Thomas fired a final round eight-under-par 64 to overturn a four-shot deficit at the start of the day and successfully defend his CIMB Classic title in Malaysia on Sunday. Lahiri was searching for a maiden PGA Tour win at the TPC Kuala Lumpur course but the five-shot swing after he lodged his tee shot in a tree left the Indian with too much to do and he had to settle for a tie for third, four strokes back. “I felt like maybe that was the biggest five holes I had played in my life because it gave me a chance,” he added. He moved four clear of the field when he sank a monster putt on the next. I made some key up and downs on 12 and 13 and it feels great,” Thomas added.
