Millie rallies to clinch ladies’ open golf title

Mille Saroha could even afford a double bogey on the 18th hole as she carded a final round of two-over 73 to emerge champion in Usha western India ladies’ golf tournament on Thursday. Saroha, who turns 17 later this month, finished with a total of 225, three clear of Gurbani Singh (75) who aggregated 228. This was Millie’s second win after her success at the northern India ladies’ event. She was third at the Eastern event. Ridhima Dilawari, who led in the first two rounds, crumbled under pressure on the final day and ended with a score of 83 to drop to third at 230.
