Fleetwood sweeps to two-shot win at DGC
Hindustan Times Bengaluru
|October 20, 2025
Tommy Fleetwood shone with a sizzling final round of 7-under 65 on a hazy Sunday afternoon to win the inaugural edition of the $4 million DP World India Championship by two strokes, leaving Japan's overnight leader Keita Nakajima in his wake at the packed DGC course.
The Englishman's eighth title on the European tour didn't come easy as he had to ward off an unexpected challenge from New Zealand's Daniel Hillier even as Nakajima, despite missing a bunch of birdie chances, managed his par putts as well as his position on the leaderboard for the better part of the day.
Fleetwood stayed calm and kept chipping away, dropping all but one shot on the second hole. Starting the final round two strokes behind overnight leader Nakajima in second spot, he opened with a birdie only to bogey the very next hole. He birdied the par-4 fourth before sinking three in a row from the seventh to make his way up.
