SSP Chawrasia staved off the challenge of compatriot Anirban Lahiri and South Korean Wang Jeung-hun to end a run of second-place finishes by winning his home Indian Open for his third European Tour title on Sunday. Chawrasia had finished second in the Asian Tour co-sanctioned event four times, including a playoff defeat to Lahiri last year. Yet the 37-year-old, who won the 2008 Indian Masters and the Panasonic Open India on the Asian Tour two years ago at the Delhi Golf Club, held his nerve for a final-round one-under-par 71 to claim victory by two shots. Lahiri birdied the first three holes of the day and was tied for the lead after Chawrasia dropped a shot on the sixth. Chawrasia, however, wrested back the advantage with a birdie on the eighth and finished with a four-day total of 15-under while South Korean Wang and Lahiri finished on 13-under.
