Arjun fashions remarkable come-from-behind win

Noida's Arjun Singh Chaudhri claimed his third professional title with a remarkable come-from-behind victory at the Forest Hills Golf Resort here today.
Chaudhri posted a one-over-71 in the third and final round to total three-under-207 in the third event of the 2013 PGTI Feeder Tour season. Delhi's Honey Baisoya carded an even-par-70 today to finish as the runner-up at one-under-209.
Chaudhri (65-71-71), who enjoyed an overnight three-shot lead, had a terrible start to the day as he bogeyed the second, fifth and eighth due to some poor hitting. He thus conceded a two-shot lead to Honey Baisoya at the end of nine holes. The 34-year-old Chaudhri then rallied with a birdie on the 10th and a good par-save with a chip-putt on the 12th.

Chaudhri was back on level terms with Baisoya after the latter three-putted for bogey on the 13th.
The golfer, 2011 PGTI Feeder Tour Order of Merit champion, hit a purple patch on the 15th, 16th and 17th to establish a two-shot lead. He made an excellent chip-putt from 50 yards for a par-save on the 15th and then landed his approach from 200 yards to within two feet for birdie on the 16th.
He all but sealed the title after converting a 10-feet birdie putt on the 17th. Baisoya's title hopes were dashed when he hit it Out of Bounds (OB) on the 18th and bogeyed the hole. Although, Chaudhri also bogeyed the last hole, he cruised to a comfortable two-shot win at the end.

Chaudhri has now won two out of three events staged in the 2013 Feeder Tour season so far. He currently enjoys a lead of over Rs 50,000 on the Feeder Tour Order of Merit for 2013.
Chaudhri now also has the maximum number of wins (3) to his credit on the PGTI Feeder Tour along with Maniram Sharma of Karnal.
