December 23, 2013: Delhi’s Indian Golf Union (IGU) Ladies Amateur Golf Tour Order of Merit leader and defending champion Gurbani Singh sealed a much anticipated third match play title at the USHA All India Ladies Amateur Golf Championship 2013, which concluded at the Bombay Presidency Golf Club (BPGC) course.
In the final match played over 36 holes, Gurbani overcame Bangalore’s Aditi Ashok, her closest rival on tour, five holes to four (5-4), to complete a phenomenal week, which saw her capture the stroke play title as well. The stroke play tournament preceded the match play format and had seen both golfers finish in the same order.
Badminton ace and USHA brand ambassador Saina Nehwal was present to felicitate all the winners along with Mr. Siddharth Shriram, Co-chairman USHA International.
With this win Gurbani Singh should also be assured of defending her title of being the best Indian amateur lady golfer in the country. Aditi should also maintain her second position on the merit list. Gurbani got back to her winning ways in Mumbai after a gap of about three months, after she had won her last title in Chandigarh in the first week of October.
