With the first two rounds of the Barclays Singapore Open marked as much by weather delays than golf, players knew there were going to be extra holes played Sunday. Titleist Brand Ambassador Matteo Manassero was up to the 36-hole marathon – and then some.

After carding a 13-under par 271 total, Manassero found himself in a tie with Pro V1x loyalist Louis Oosthuizen. On the third hole of the sudden-death playoff, Manassero dropped a 12-foot eagle putt to claim victory and earn his third-career victory.

On the LPGA Tour, Pro V1 loyalist Cristie Kerr earned her 15th-career title after shooting four rounds in the 60's (67-69-67-69) at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational. Capping off the three-win week, Titleist Brand Ambassador Trevor Fisher Jr. played steady golf during the final round to finish one shot clear of the field and earn his third victory of this season at the Nedbank Affinity Cup.

Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x players have now won 174 times across the worldwide professional tours in 2012, more than seven times the nearest competitor with 23 and more than all competitors combined.

EUROPEAN TOUR: After a grueling 39 holes on Sunday (36 holes of regulation and three playoff holes), Manassero (who became the European Tour's youngest ever winner two years ago) is now the first teenager to win three times on the European Tour. He also becomes the youngest champion in the Singapore Open's 51-year history. 

“It’s been an extremely long day,” said Manassero. “The adrenaline kept me going and the key was starting really well this morning. Starting with some birdies gave me a lot of adrenaline to go forward."
