Fatima edges out Amandeep to win maiden pro title in Hero WPGT

Afshan Fatima claimed her maiden title as a professional, edging out Amandeep Drall on the second play-off hole in the 13th leg of the Hero Women's Pro Golf Tour at the Jaypee Greens on Friday.

Afshan was six-over 150 after 36 holes, while Amandeep, the only player to have won three times this season, was two-over through two rounds.

Afshan carded one-under 71 as Amandeep went to three-over 75, which meant both players were tied 5-over 221.

In the play-off, both players were once again tied and then Afshan pipped Amandeep in the second play-off hole.

This was the second tournament at the Jaypee Greens this year. Last time in February in the fifth leg, Gursimar Badwal was the winner, while Afshan had one of her best finishes at Tied-fourth when she shot three-under 69 in the second round. Afshan clearly likes the course.

The 22-year-old Afshan has time and again impressed, but this time she went all the way and finished right on top and this should give her a lot of confidence.
