UK’s Liz Young prevailed by a stroke over four others, despite a bogey on the last hole, in the $400,000 Hero Women’s Indian Open golf championship at the DLF Golf and Country Club on Sunday.
“On this course, you play for par. If the birdies happen, it is great. You have to be prepared for anything. It was physically and mentally challenging. I did a good job this week. [I] am looking forward to being with my daughter who has her eighth birthday next week,” Sportstar quotes Liz, who was emotional, as having said while thanking her husband for being a rock of support.
Shannon Tan of Singapore, Agathe Sauzon of France, Momoka Kobori of New Zealand and Manon De Roey of Belgium were one-under 287, and collected $21,380 each.
Mannat Brar was the best amateur as she shot a 2-under 70 for the day, for an overall 4-over 292.
Pranavi Urs and Hitaashee Bakshi were joint 15th with 6-over 294, and were presented a Hero bike each, apart from a cash purse of $6,725, for the best performance among the Indian professionals.
