Siem chips out dramatic win

Playoff birdie completes German's rally in Shanghai

Marcel Siem of Germany missed an easy putt to win the BMW Masters in regulation but he atoned for that by chipping in for birdie to win a sudden-death playoff against Alexander Levy of France and Ross Fisher of England on Sunday.

Siem rallied from a five-shot deficit on a wind-whipped afternoon at Lake Malaren. He was the only player who failed to hit the 18th green in the playoff and then thrilled the Chinese gallery with a chip from the collar that curled into the right side of the cup.
