SINGAPORE \u2014 Richard T. Lee delivered one of the strongest performances of his career Sunday at LIV Golf Singapore, finishing runner-up after a dramatic playoff at Sentosa Golf Club.<\/p>\n
The Canadian fired a 5-under 66 in the final round, surging up the leaderboard with birdies on four of his final six holes to reach 14-under par for the tournament. His late charge forced a playoff with Bryson DeChambeau.<\/p>\n
Lee had a chance to extend the playoff on the first extra hole, but his 2-foot par attempt slid past the left edge, leaving DeChambeau to secure the victory with a par.<\/p>\n
