He went on to make pars on all the other holes. Perera, who has now won three professional titles, made some amazing par saves on the seventh and 14th. He made outstanding chip-putts on the seventh and 14th.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hit it really well today. I was solid through the day and played regulation golf. My short-game was good in the final round, especially the putting. This win is a result of my hard-work and dedication. I\u2019m now looking forward to ending the season with an equally good performance at the season-ending event next week,\u201d said Perera, who has now climbed from seventh place to fifth position on the 2012 Rolex Rankings.<\/p>\n<p>Vinod Kumar (68-67-70-70), the defending champion, finished runner-up after firing a one-under-70 in the final round. Vinod\u2019s round featured four birdies and three bogeys and helped him end the tournament with a total of 10-under-275.<\/p>\n<p>Om Prakash Chouhan (69-68-68-71) of Mhow finished a further stroke back in third place.<\/p>\n<p>Rashid Khan of Delhi and Mhow\u2019s Mukesh Kumar shared fourth place at eight-under-277. Rashid has now climbed from second position to first place on the 2012 Rolex Rankings.<\/p>\n<p>Karan Taunk of Jamshedpur, the lone amateur to make the cut, won the trophy for the best performance by an amateur. Taunk was placed tied 31st at four-over-289.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday the entire field played nine holes each on both the courses &#8211; Beldih as well as Golmuri. While one half of the field teed off from Beldih, the other half began its round from Golmuri. Thirty golfers with the best scores at the end of round three teed off from Golmuri and finished at Beldih. The par for the combined courses was 71.<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Indian Sports News Network<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"images\/golf\/golf_junior.jpg\" width=\"250\" alt=\"golf\" style=\"margin: 6px; float: left;\" \/>Jamshedpur<\/strong>: Sri Lanka\u2019s Mithun Perera came home the winner at the 11th TATA Open after firing a final round of one-under-70.
