\"AngadAhmedabad:<\/strong> Chandigarh\u2019s Angad Cheema continued from where he left at the PGTI\u2019s mid-season break. Angad, the winner of the last event in the first half of the season, made it back-to-back titles after he lifted the trophy in the first event of the season\u2019s second half, the INR 1 crore Coal India Open 2025, played at the Kensville Golf & Country Club in Ahmedabad.<\/p>\n

Angad Cheema (69-67-69-70) fired a two-under 70 in round four to end up with a week\u2019s total of 13-under 275. It was the 35-year-old Cheema\u2019s fourth PGTI win and second triumph of the season. Angad took home the winner\u2019s cheque worth INR 15 lakh that lifted him from 10th to second position in the PGTI Order of Merit as his season\u2019s earnings went to INR 55,56,726.<\/p>\n

Noida\u2019s Amardeep Malik (69-65-72-73) signed for a one-over 73 in the final round to secure a runner-up finish. Amardeep thus climbed 27 spots to 21st position in the PGTI Order of Merit.<\/p>\n

Delhi\u2019s Shaurya Bhattacharya (70) and Pune\u2019s Udayan Mane (71) claimed tied third place at seven-under 281.<\/p>\n

Yuvraj Sandhu (71) of Chandigarh ended the week in fifth place at six-under 282 to continue in the lead in the PGTI\u2019s money list with his season\u2019s earnings amounting to INR 58,67,200.<\/p>\n

Angad Cheema, the overnight leader by one shot, built on his lead over the front-nine on Friday by accumulating four birdies in exchange for a bogey. Then on the back-nine, Angad\u2019s two long birdie conversions from a range of 15 to 25 feet saw him home despite his three dropped shots on the 12th and 17th.<\/p>\n

Angad, who drew on his experience of playing the qualifying event of The Open this summer in the UK, said, \u201cIt was a brilliant week as I played well from start to finish and did not make many mistakes. I\u2019d say I just ended up putting better than others. I made some long conversions in every round. I would like to give credit for my great putting this week to my caddie Khushi Ram who gave me the correct lines and speed on the greens.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was good fun playing alongside my close friend and roommate Amardeep in the last two rounds. We share a great equation and thus we enjoyed a lot of light-hearted banter playing in the leader group over the last two days which just eased the atmosphere.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels great to win back-to-back and adds to my determination to play even better going forward,\u201d added Cheema, who ended an 11-year title drought last season.<\/p>\n

Amardeep Malik, who trailed Cheema by one shot after round three, mixed three birdies with four bogeys on day four to slip out of contention.  <\/p>\n

Delhi-based amateur Rakshit Dahiya won the trophy for the best performance by an amateur after he finished tied 10th at one-under 287.<\/p>\n

Ahmedabad\u2019s Varun Parikh took tied 19th position as he closed the week with a total of one-over 289.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
