Maybank Malaysian Open

Past inspires Siddikur

An in-form Siddikur Rahman looking for an elusive second Asian Tour title when he tees off today at 12.30pm local time in the Maybank Malaysian Open in Kuala Lumpur. The vaunted golfer from Bangladesh, who won his first tour title in the Brunei Open back in 2010, has come close a number of times to winning his second, but just could not manage it so far. His latest near miss was at the Panasonic Open in New Delhi last week when he finished joint second. Siddikur too knows that a second title is just round the corner as he exuded confidence at the practice at the Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club.
"I've been struggling to win a second title. I came close two weeks ago so I hope I can win again soon,” a confident Siddikur told the Asian Tour website.
Siddikur's previous record at this event will be an inspiration for him as he finished in eighth position last year, the top among Asian golfers. He hopes the positive memories will guide him to a long-awaited second Asian Tour title “I always enjoy coming and playing in Malaysia. When I see the crowd following and cheering for me, it gives me more energy to play," said Siddikur.
However, the 27-year old golfer's bid will not be an easy one as he will have to contend with an elite field of stars which includes five major champions. Siddikur will be up against the likes of Louis Oosthuizen of South Africa, Charl Schwartzel and Martin Kaymer of Germany, defending champion Matteo Manassero of Italy, current Asian Order of Merit leader Jbe Kruger of South Africa and a host of Asian stars.
