Overnight leader Thongchai Jaidee fell three inches from a playoff in the BMW Masters Sunday but the veteran still called it a "fantastic week".

He left a 15-foot putt on the final green agonisingly short when a couple of more rolls would have taken him into sudden death finale against Patrick Reed and eventual winner Kristoffer Broberg in the $7 million event.
