By Alistair Hogg PGA TOUR Stuart Appleby suffered another final round fade to finish equal-third after leading the AT&T National after 52 holes. The Australian held a two-stroke lead over eventual winner KJ Choi at the start of play, but four bogeys and a double through his opening seven holes saw the Aussie drop well out of contention. Choi had four birdies in his final round including a superb chip-in from a green-side bunker on 17 to all but seal the title. Robert Allenby was Australia&aposs next-best competitor with two-under while Geoff Ogilvy and Matthew Goggin finished even with the card in a share of 12th place.
