After having gone toe-to-toe with the rest of the field, Bangladesh's best golfer Siddikur Rahman finished the Queen's Cup in Thailand with a whimper at joint 15th position yesterday.

The two-time Asian Tour winner, who had racked up matching 68s in the first two rounds, ended the event with consecutive 72s for an aggregate score of four-under-par (280).

The 32-year-old golfer exchanged three birdies for four bogeys in the final round at the Santiburi Samui Country Club in Koh Samui.

Siddikur finished eleven shots behind the eventual winner, Nicholas Fung of Malaysia, who carded a 67 yesterday to bag the winner's paycheque of 90,000 dollars.
