Gurbani wins DGC ladies Open
NEW DELHI: Aditi Ashok, the talented 13-year-old from Bangalore, made a great charge on the final day of the Usha DGC Ladies Open but by then it was too late to cover the seven-shot lead that Gurbani Singh started with after the second round.
Playing flawless golf and landing four birdies against no bogeys, Aditi Ashok carded a four-under 68, by far the best card of the week. That left her four behind Gurbani (75).
Gurbani did not allow nervousness to get her and did not drop any shots further and cantered home.
