LAHORE, May 26: Robin Bagh won the Punjab Junior under-21 golf championship with aggregate 148 at Lahore Gymkhana course on Saturday.
Besides the under-21, the competition for under-17 was also held, which was won by Irfan Maqbool.
A brilliant final round of gross 72 by Robin Bagh helped him to win the event as right on his heel Faisal Hanif and Danyaal Jehangir posed a constant pressure on him. Lanky Robin, 18, played with the perfect rhythm to get the full weight behind the ball.
Robin had played the first round of four-over-76, and was behind to Faisal when the second day was started. But Robin posted a card of par-72 on second day which enabled him to grab the winning slot.
He grabbed three birdies on holes 6th, 8th and 15th. On 13 other holes he was at par.
