Shiraz Singh claims Usha DGC Ladies Open Amateur title 2015

Shiraz Singh snared the 6th Usha DGC Ladies Open Amateur Golf Championship 2015 at the Delhi Golf Club as she signed off with a gross score of 85 here today, which gave her a three-round aggregate of 244.
Shiraz, an 8-handicapper, capitalised on her display from the first two days to carve out a nine-stroke gap over Dhanalaxmi Rice and the top position.
Dhanalaxmi (10-handicap) had a round 84 today, leaving her with a total of 253.
Lalita Balasubramaniam (13-handicap) held on the third spot with a score of 261 while 9-handicapper Himadri Singh ended 4th with a total of 264.

Aashana Singh, who was second after Day One, finished 5th, three strokes behind Himadri.
Shiraz threatened to implode when she finished the outward nine with a total of nine-over 45 but managed to hold her nerve to have a steadier return nine of four-over 40 to stay ahead.
A total of 73 Indian and foreign amateur golfers are in the fray for this prestigious and popular amateur tournament.
