Chawrasia blasts Indian Open field

He's done it again!

SSP Chawrasia made European Tour history as he blew away the rest of the field to successfully defend his title at the Hero Indian Open. Chawrasia bagged himself a tidy €275,876.00 for his troubles.

"Now let that be a lesson to you, SSP Chawrasia"

The home favourite started the day in a share of the lead at DLF Golf and Country Club but had moved two shots ahead when the third round of the weather-delayed tournament was completed on Sunday morning.

UCHHAAL!!!! That's Hindu for 'Kaboom!'

He did not look back in round four, signing for a 71 and sealing a season-high equalling seven-shot win over Malaysia's Gavin Green.

The victory continued his remarkable record at his national Open where he was runner-up four times before finally triumphing last season.

"Now you've gone and got my putter typsy!!!"

Eddie Pepperell's chances of securing an Indian take away were scuppered with a disappointing last round 76 while Matteo Manassero finished tied 3rd after a final round 73.
