Tvesa Malik stands steady at the finish to win third title on Hero WPGT

Tvesa Malik geared up for the Hero Women's Indian Open with a thrilling win at the 13th Leg of the Hero Women's Pro Golf Tour here on Friday.

Tvesa, who was trailing by a shot with two holes to play, stood steady when it mattered most as the overnight leader Diksha Dagar crumbled for a bogey-bogey finish.

Tvesa was three-over after the 14th hole but she didn't make any mistakes over the last four crucial holes. She birdied the par-3 16th and parred the 15th, 17th and 18th to finish at two-over 74 on the final day to take her total to one-over 217.

The win puts Tvesa in a perfect frame of mind ahead of the Hero Women's Indian Open to be held at the same venue, the Black Knight Gary Player course at the DLF Golf and Country Club from October 3 to 6.

It was Tvesa's third win of the season after previous wins in the third leg at Ahmedabad's Kensville Golf and Country Club and the eighth leg in Bengaluru's Prestige Golfshire.

She joins Ridhima as the only other three-time winner this year.
