Johor, Malaysia (Sports Network) - Sergio Garcia fired an 11-under 61 on Sunday to win the weather-shortened Johor Open.

Tropical thunderstorms reduced the Asian Tour season-ending event to 54 holes, and Garcia finished at 18-under 198 to secure his 24th professional victory.

Jonathan Moore also closed with a 61 and finished at 15-under for his second runner-up result of the season, while Thongchai Jaidee (65) ended in third place at minus-14.

Overnight leader Daniel Chopra carded a final-round 69 at the Horizon Hills Golf and Country Club. He finished in fourth place at 13-under.

Thaworn Wiratchant (65) highlighted a group of five tied for fifth place at 11-under. With the result, the 45-year-old secured the Asian Tour Order of Merit title for the second time since 2005.
