MACAO, Oct. 22 (Xinhua) -- Indian Gaganjeet Bhullar won his second Macao Golf Open title after closing with a three-under-par 68 to take his eighth Asian Tour trophy here on Sunday.
"Every time you win wire-to-wire on the Asian Tour, you learn a lot. I want to grow as a player and you learn so much from winning and even losing," said Bhullar, who won his first Macao Open title in 2012.
The 29-year-old Bhullar fired seven birdies against two bogeys and a double-bogey to win by three shots with a 13-under-par 271 in total score.
"I was absolutely blank after the bogey on the first hole. After that I just stuck to my plan and took my opportunities. Honestly it got simple after the bogey. I hit the ball well and made my putts. It was a tough start to the day but the last four days have been really hard," added Bhullar.
Angelo Que of the Philippines battled to a 69 to share the second place with Ajeetesh Sandhu of India, who posted a 70, while Chinese Taipei's Hung Chien Yao took fourth place following a 72 for a total score of 276.
China's Lin Yuxin, the only amateur to make the halfway cut, collected a total of 288 to take the 34th place, while Chinese veteran Zhang Lianwei settled for the 41st with 298.
Organized by the Golf Association of Macao and sanctioned by the Asian Tour, the 2017 Macao Golf Open has attracted 144 of the world's most seasoned professionals and the region's upcoming amateur talents.
