New Delhi, Nov 21: Indian golfer Diksha Dagar came up with a superb 11-under in the last round to win by a huge margin and clinch the gold medal at the Deaflympics here on Thursday.The 24-year-old, who had represented the country at the 2017 Deaflympics when the sport was included in the event for the very first time and returned with a silver, finally took the top-podium spot at the Wakasu Golf Links thanks to her clinical putting.
The Indian had fired a four-under 68 on the opening day, the only sub-par score in a field of 21 players.
The Indian, who also qualified to represent the country at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta and a year later became only the second Indian woman golfer after Aditi Ashok to win on the Ladies European Tour at the age of 18, was on the heels of a hot putter as she shot an amazing 11-under in round two to leave the field way behind.
