Meher edges past Shruti

Principal Correspondent

NEW DELHI: Meher Atwal and Shruti Naik braved chilly conditions before Meher won the first round match-play after putting for a par, in the 90th all-India ladies amateur golf championship at the Delhi Golf Club course here on Thursday.

The two were all-square after 16 holes before Meher won the 17th with a birdie. Meher should have finished the match on the par-5 18th, but strayed into the bushes that allowed Shruti to rally with a par. On the 19th hole, Meher had a good start and was three on the green, but Shruti made a remarkable chip putt to stay in contention.

Shruti's resilience, however, waned on the 20th when she messed up her approach despite hitting a good tee shot.

The results:

Gold division: Shruti Khanna bt Alex Bell 7 and 6, Shweta Galande bt Mani Chander 6 and 5, Vaishavi Sinha bt Nalini Singh 6 and 5, Nalini Singh bt Shreya Ghei 4 and 3, Laverry Kumar bt Jessie Nyakatawa 6 and 5, Meher Atwal bt Shruti Naik on the 20th hole, Meghna Bal bt Karishma Tyagaraj 2 and 1, Pragya Misra bt Lalitha B. 7 and 6.

Silver division: Gurbani Singh bt Usha Chatrath 5 and 4, Megha Mehdiratta bt Aahna Monga conceded, Sonal Chaudhri bt Aulia Alfazema 6 and 5, Meher Gupta bt Ritu Lumba on the 19th hole, Gauri Monga bt Rita Punwani 4 and 3, Bunty Khanna bt Navina Punj 1 up, Sonia Barman bt Mandy Patterson 1 up.

Bronze division: Rashmi Singh bt Kumkum Kapur 5 and 4, Neelu Chopra bt Chandrika Sondhi 2 and 1, Savita Talwar bt Nimmi Dhir 6 and 4, Amrita Sarna bt Neeta Tripathi 5 and 4, Raksha Phadke bt Soni M. Singh on the 19th hole, Shakuntala Malik bt Vanita Malhotra 1 up, Jaipreet S. Ghuman bt S. C. Mahtab 3 and 2.
