PETALING JAYA: Former Malaysian Open champion Anirban Lahiri of India served a timely boost to Asian golf when he carded his best season-finish at the Texas Open on Sunday.
The man, who had struggled on the golf course for months, can finally put a smile back on his face and breathe a sigh of relief after knocking in a closing birdie on the last at the TPC San Antonio to sign off with a three-under 69 for his best finish of the season on the PGA Tour by coming out fifth. His 10-under 278 total was some eight shots behind winner Jordan Spieth but the margin wasn’t a concern to Anirban at all.
