Kolkata: Abhijit Chadha of Chandigarh almost faced elimination but he kept his cool to pip Raghav Wahi of J & K by 1 up in the match play of the Goodricke East India championship at the RCGC here on Tuesday.
Three up against Wahi after the 13th hole, Chadha found the going tough soon as the J&K golfer went on to win the next three holes and was in a position to repeat the 2009 scene wherein 32nd position (by play-off) had defeated the number one seed.
Both Chadha and Wahi halved the 17th but an easy par on the 18th by Chadha helped him fight on for another day.
Playing against young Angad Cheema, veteran Gagan Verma proved his mettle with six birdies and won on the 18th hole.The results:
