The 10-year-old golfer touched down in the capital after a successful sojourn of Scotland and USA where he won two prestigious titles at the IMG Academy Junior World Championships in San Diego followed by the World Stars of Junior Golf in Las Vegas.
"Tiger is my idol and I have always followed his game on Youtube. My aim is to become world no. One and break Jack Nicklaus 18-Major title," Jaglan said.
He wasn't to be satisfied with a single victory and teed off at the TPC Las Vegas Angel Park, Mountain course for the World Stars of Junior Golf Tournament the following week. His three round total of two-under 106 was enough to wrap up the title by a commanding five strokes.
The 10-year-old was inspired by India's late President APJ Abdul Kalam.
"Going into the tournament I had the goal to win. When I was playing in Vegas, Amit Sir sent me a message about APJ Kalam Sir's death and a quote saying 'Dream is not that which you see while sleeping it is something that does not let you sleep'. I was so inspired by the line. I was four shots behind on the day and the next day, I went on to take a five-shot lead.
