Thongchai Jaidee was buried in the final standings at the British Open, in a tie for 33rd place, but only because he had that horrendous 79 on day one of the tournament.
The ex-paratrooper settled down and fired rounds of 71, 71 and 72 _ as good as the leaders, but for that one horrible round.
The final pay cheques were still being figured late Sunday, but Thongchai made around 30,500 euros for his effort _ about 1.24 million baht.
