  Shamim Khan coasts to comfortable five-shot win at Kolkata Classic 2017, leads PGTI Order of Merit

  SSP Chawrasia finishes runner-up

  With a three-shot overnight lead Delhi’s Shamim Khan was well aware that just keeping the errors out on the final day would pave the way for his victory at the Kolkata Classic 2017.

  Shamim ended the Rs. 40 lakh event with a total score of 10-under-278 to bag his 13th professional title and take home the winner’s cheque worth Rs. 6 lakh. He thus climbed from fourth to first in the PGTI Order of Merit.
