SHENZHEN, May 5 (Xinhua) -- Spain's Adrian Otaegui shot a seven-under-par 65 final round with a total of 198 to win the Volvo China Open at Hidden Grace Golf Club in Shenzhen on Sunday.

Italy's Guido Migliozzi finished second and three competitors from England, Switzerland and Sweden tied for third.

The tournament was reduced to three rounds due to bad weather. Otaegui had no bogeys on the day and picked up two birdies on the last three holes.

"It was one of my goals to play in Grand Slam this year and to play in the PGA Championship is great news for me," said Otaegui.

Migliozzi had six birdies and one bogey to finish the day in second place with a total of 198.

Sebastian Soderberg, the Swede who had led the first two rounds, had an up-and-down day, with two bogeys and a double bogey. He shot 72 for a 200 total and tied for third place with England's Paul Waring and Switzerland's Joel Girrbach.

Chinese players Wu Ashun, Jin Zihao and Li Haotong were tied for 35th. Two other Chinese players, Xue Han and Ye Wocheng, were ranked 50th and 63rd respectively.
