Spieth| 2nd at Singapore

SINGAPORE — Jordan Spieth finished runner-up at the Singapore Open today after South Korea’s Song Young-han held his nerve to beat the fast-finishing world number one by a single stroke.

Among 13 players back at Sentosa Golf Club at the break of dawn after Sunday’s final round was suspended because of a thunderstorm, Spieth sank a five-foot birdie putt on the last hole, where he had marked his ball overnight, completing a final round of 5-under 66 to finish at 11-under 273.

Song, resuming on 12 under and playing two groups behind Spieth, drained a tricky 12-foot par putt on the 16th then made par at the last two holes to win the co-sanctioned Asian and Japan Tour event.

“I had my first perfect round today,” Spieth joked about his one-shot day.

Farmers Insurance OpenSAN DIEGO — Brandt Snedeker called it one of the best rounds he ever played, one he doubts he could repeat if he had to start over. Still to be determined was whether his 3-under 69 in a raging wind and occasional rain Sunday at Torrey Pines would be good enough to win the Farmers Insurance Open.He has to wait until today to find out.Not long after Snedeker finished, the final round was suspended for the third time because of unplayable conditions.
