Shiv Kapur had the best performance among Indian golfers as he finished fourth at Panasonic Open which concluded at Delhi Golf Club on Sunday.
There were seven Indians who finished in the Top-15 as Australian Wade Ormsby won his maiden Asian Tour title with a final round of one-under-par 71 to pip Thailand veteran Boonchu Ruangkit by one stroke and get richer by USD 54,000. Kapur was in contention till three holes from the finish before he ran into trouble on 16th and 18th and dropped shots on both to drop to fourth, while SSP Chowrasia (68) made a valiant bid only to end up fifth alongside defending champion Digvijay Singh, who carded four sub-par rounds.
Kapur’s search for a first win on his home course was extended after he bogeyed two of his last three holes to finish three shots.
