SSP Chawrasia ends wait for Indian Open win

SSP Chawrasia ends his wait to win the Hero Indian Open by holding off defending champion Anirban Lahiri at Delhi Golf Club.

Home favourite SSP Chawrasia has finally won the Hero Indian Open after four runner-up finishes at the tournament.

The 37-year-old lost out to Anirban Lahiri in a playoff last year at Delhi Golf Club, but this time around held off the challenge of the defending champion.

Chawrasia took a two-shot lead into the final round and maintained that advantage by the end of day four thanks to a final-round 71.

It is a third European Tour title and first since 2011 for Chawrasia, who finished two above Lahiri and Korea's Jeunghun Wang.
