Bhasin ended up with a total score of 11-under-277 to bag his second professional title. Abhinav Lohan of Faridabad finished as the runner-up at eight-under-280.<\/p>\n<p>Kunal Bhasin (67-72-67-71), the overnight joint leader, had a terrific start in round four as he birdied the second and third. Kunal chipped it to within four feet on the second and sank a 14-feet putt on the third. The 33-year-old Mumbai-based professional dropped his first stroke of the day when he bogeyed the 12th after finding the rough with his second shot.<\/p>\n<p>Bhasin, who hails from Brisbane in Queensland, Australia, hit a tremendous drive into the wind and followed that up with a 22-feet conversion for birdie on the 16th that helped him build a comfortable four-stroke lead. Kunal\u2019s bogey on the 17th did not cause much trouble to him as he still finished three strokes clear of the rest of the field.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a very satisfying win. I played solid and stayed calm throughout the day. I have fared better on the back-nine this week. Therefore, I told myself that I must play under-par on the front-nine since I was confident of doing well on the back-nine. The two birdies early on gave me the ideal start. The birdie on the 16th came at a very important time as it provided me with a good cushion at the top,\u201d said Bhasin, who is an Asian Tour regular.<\/p>\n<p>Bhasin has now moved up to 11th place on the 2012 Rolex Rankings.<\/p>\n<p>Abhinav Lohan (70-68-69-73) made a birdie and two bogeys in his final round of 73 to finish second. Lohan, a silver-medalist at the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games, thus posted his best finish on the PGTI since turning professional in early 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Gaurav Pratap Singh of Noida and Delhi\u2019s Manav Jaini were joint third at seven-under-281.<\/p>\n<p>Mukesh Kumar of Mhow, R Murthy of Bangalore and Sri Lanka\u2019s Mithun Perera shared fifth place at five-under-283.<\/p>\n<p>The PGTI Players Championship at the Golden Greens Golf &amp; Country Club will be telecast on Ten Golf.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gurgaon: Kunal Bhasin of Australia registered an emphatic three-stroke victory at the PGTI Players Championship at the Golden Greens Golf &amp; Country Club in Gurgaon after he shot a one-under-71 in the final round on Friday.
