Hero Women’s Professional Golf Tour 2014
Smriti Mehra triumphant at the third leg of HWPGT 2014
Mumbai, February 21, 2014: Veteran golfer Smriti Mehra kept a resurgent Vani Kapoor at bay to win the third leg of the Hero Women’s Professional Golf Tour 2014 which concluded today at the Willingdon Sports Club in the city. Vani Kapoor, who had slipped to fourth position after the second round, came back strongly today giving Smriti a run for her money. However, it was the veteran golfer who came out victorious as she edged past Vani by a single shot to win her first title this season.
Smriti played a steady round today and returned with a final round score of two over 67 and a total score of 195, edging past Vani who returned with a round three score of one under 64 and a total score of 196. Smriti carded four birdies on the fourth, fifth, seventh and 16th holes against six bogeys on the sixth, eight, ninth, 11th, 13th and 18th holes. Vani once again proved why she has been touted as one of Indian’s finest young talents. She came back superbly today to reach within striking distance of her third consecutive title in the HWPGT 2014, however a bad back nine didn’t help her cause. She carded five birdies on the third, fourth, fifth, seventh and 15th holes and had bogeys on the first, 11th, 13th and 16th holes.
Pallavi Jain retained her third position with a final round score of three over 68 and a total of 199. She carded three birdies as opposed to six bogeys. Sharmila Nicollet once again disappointed and returned with a final round score of five over 70 and a total score of 200. She managed to card just a single birdie and conceded four bogeys and a double bogey to finish fourth. Neha Tripahi finished fifth with a final round score of three over 68 and a total of 205, while Vaishavi Sinha with a round three score of five over 70 and total of 207 finished sixth.
Meghna Bal and Ankita Tiwana finished tied seventh with identical total scores of 208. Shweta Galande (211) finished ninth and Vandana Agarwal (212) finished tenth.
The Rs. 5,00,000 event is the third in the series of 14 this year.

Save Dissent to Save Democracy   THE rising instances of physical violence and threats against political opponents and the inability to accept dissent must raise huge concerns amongst all of us who see democracy as perhaps the really stellar achievement since Independence. AAP’s attack on BJP headquarters and acts of arson committed under the very noses of their elite leadership; the attacks on Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia in Gujarat in the last two days; the recent manhandling of the caretaker of journalist Siddharth Varadarajan’s house by some garden variety thugs; and the violence and threats meted out regularly to their political opponents by political parties is surely deplorable and condemnable. This is a fatally flawed trend which will destroy the very foundations of our democratic institutions if not pushed back with all the strength and condemnation that the civil society can mobilise. Replaying the past To begin with, it must be clarified that we should ...
