Delhi Golf Club League: In what has been the most evenly-matched contest in the four-year history of the league, Tee Birds and MMG Coca-Cola were adjudged joint winners in a nerve-tingling final at the fourth edition of the Delhi Golf Club League. In a tragic turn of events, both the joint winners had lost key members Gaurav Karnik and Advait Luthra, who had passed away before the start of the tournament.

“There were two changes made this year, which included a new point system and a more robust handicap system, and it resulted in the knockouts game becoming very tight. We had four new teams in the knockouts and got shared winners,“ Digraj Singh, Tournament Committee member told IANS.

“Besides the talent that was on display, the way these amateur golfers handled the immense amount of pressure that was on them, with crowds following them, and then the spirit they showed in the end to agree to be joint winners was incredible. Both the teams had lost members, they had passed away and perhaps divinity was in play," he said.
