Shakhawat Sohel plays a shot during the final round yesterday. Miri: Shakhawat Sohel of Bangladesh fired a sensational eagle on the first play-off hole to win his maiden Asian Development Tour (ADT) title at the Miri Championship yesterday. Shakhawat returned with a solid five-under-par 67 in regulation play to tie with rising star Nitithorn Thippong (70) of Thailand on seven-under-par 281 at the US$58,000 ADT event. The victory was a dream come true for Shakhawat, who erased the heartbreak of losing in a play-off on the ADT in Malaysia in July. With this triumph, he became the second Bangladeshi to win on the ADT after Siddikur Rahman.
