RYAN MOORE IS CIMB CLASSIC CHAMPION AGAIN

Defending champion, Ryan Moore shot a final round 5-under-par to post 17-under 271 and become the first player in CIMB Classic history to win it back-to-back. He won the 2013 edition after play-off against Gary Woodland.

Moore becomes the first person to successfully defend a title on Tour since Tiger Woods at the Arnold Palmer Invitational 2012 and 2013.

After a bogey on the 16th hole, Moore's lead was reduced to just one stroke. He bounced back brilliantly at 17th hole with a birdie. Kevin Na recorded a double-bogey on that same hole and fell four strokes behind.

The victory at Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club sends Moore to fourth position in the FedEx Cup Standings. It is also his fourth PGA Tour title from 236 starts.
