Smriti ready to wrap last leg and Order of
Merit in Mumbai
Mumbai, March 27:
Smriti Mehra will tee off at the 15th and final leg of the of the
Hero Women’s Professional Golf Tour with an aim to not only win her seventh
title of the season but also wrap up the Order of Merit, which she is leading
by a handy margin.
The veteran
golfer, who was once on the LPGA Tour, has been in great form and has won six
of the 14 events held on the Tour this season. In the first round of the 15th
and final leg at the BPGC she has been paired with Nalini Singh Siwach, who herself
has won three titles this year.
Smriti, who has
played each of the 14 legs has accumulated Rs. 7, 32, 100 while Nalini has Rs. 6,63,400.
So, Smriti should win the Order of Merit for the season, even if she does not
win the last leg.
Sharmila
Nicollet, who has missed some of the recent events, because of her engagements
on Ladies European tour, will again be absent. She is lying third on Money List
and Neha Tripathi with a good finish could overhaul her.
