Singh, a three-time major winner, closed with a 1-over 73 and tied for 10th place. He designed the Natadola Bay Championship course, which features 15 oceanside holes.
Jeffress shot a 2-under 70 to finish at 10-under 278 to win by four strokes in the Australasian PGA Tour and OneAsia event.
Australia’s Jake Higginbottom (70) was the runner-up. Countrymen Terry Pilkadaris (71) and Andrew Dodt (76) were eight strokes behind the winner. Jeffress and Higginbottom led by two strokes after three rounds.
South Korea’s Hur In-hoi was nine strokes off the lead.
