Jeev Milkha Singh rounded off the week with a card of even par 71 and a total of three-under 281 to finsh a lowly tied 38th in the Irish Open here today.
Jeev, who shot 69 in the third round ended in a tie for 38th, his best in what has so far been a rather disappointing season for India's number one golfer.
Jeev had three birdies and three bogeys in the final round after being two over after 10 holes.
Jeev birdied the 11th and 17th to ensure he did not fall too deep. The other two Indians, Shiv Kapur and Gaganjeet Bhullar had missed the half cut.
Mikko Ilonen held on to his lead with a final round of one-under 70, that included a shaky bogey on the 18th to won the title at 13-under 270.
Ilonen started the day in lead and was two shots clear of Edoardo Molinari, who had set the clubhouse target at 12-under 272.
Ilonen went into the trees but got to the green in four. He then needed a two-putt from 10 feet to win outright and he did exactly that despite finishing with a bogey.
Ilonen had just two birdies on second and fourth and then a string of pars till that bogey on 18th. The win would be a big boost for Ilonen, who has already qualified for British Open next month.
Molinari (67) was second at 12-under and was one shot clear of Kristoffer Broberg (69), Mathew Baldwin (69) and Danny Willett (71) all tied at 11-under 273. Graeme McDowell (71) and Magnus A Carlsson (69) tied for sixth at 10-under 274.
