Hero Indian Open report: What happened in New Delhi?
A stellar final round comeback from Steven Gallacher saw him claim his fourth European Tour title as he took down tournament leader Julian Suri to win the Hero Indian Open.
The winds blew at DLF Golf & Country Club, but nothing could stop the Scot who carded three birdies in his final four holes, signing for a Sunday 71 to win on 9-under-par by a single stroke.

A quadruple-bogey 8 on the par-4 7th left Gallacher five shots back and looked to have ended his chances, but final-rounds of 77, 78 and 73 from Julian Suri, Callum Shinkwin and Masahiro Kawamura respectively allowed him back in.
Fun fact: Three of the top five at the Indian Open, including winner Stephen Gallacher, had an '8' on their card this week.

With 15 players in contention for the title Gallacher took the solo lead on the 17th hole, before taking dead aim at the flag at 18 to set up a closing birdie that ultimately proved vital.
Steven Gallacher, the 2019 Hero Indian Open Champion! ??
