MANILA, Philippines — Miguel Tabuena fought through continued putting challenges by excelling on long holes, firing a bogey-free 67 to rescue a joint ninth-place finish in the Shinhan Donghae Open, won by Kensei Hirata in Incheon, South Korea on Sunday.

After a frustrating 32-putt round of 71 following consecutive 68s, Tabuena rebounded with five birdies, highlighted by dominant plays on holes 5 and 7, where he carded two-putt birdies. He also gained strokes on the 11th and 17th holes, capping off his day with a birdie on the par-5 18th, this time, on a one-putt finish.
