David Gleeson of Australia has won the 1.25 million dollar Indian Golf Open while Chiragh Kumar finished second at the Delhi Golf Club on Sunday. The Trophy eluded Chiragh but the Indian golfer still managed his best-ever finish in an Asian Tour event by signing off second. Chiragh's second successive two-under 70 in the final round was three shots off the pace, while the Australian returned a four-under 68 to end his three-year title drought on the Asian Tour.Overnight tied second, Chiragh held on to the position with the help of a birdie on the last hole for a four-day aggregate of 17-under 271. With this win, Chiragh also secured his Asian Tour card.Overnight leader Gleeson made a rampaging start to the final round, firing a couple of birdies at the first and fifth, with an eagle sandwiched at the third, to take the turn at four-under.
